The SCS Christmas Card Challenge for July has a special challenge to make a Christmas card in red, white, and blue. And I was away on vacation in May so never did the CAS219 Featured Player challenge which was to honour and CASE bon2stamp who is one of my on-line friends and someone whose cards I really admire. So I've been meaning to CASE a card of Bonnie's for a month now. I chose this one:
as I love the layout and thought it would be ideal for using inchie stamps. I changed the embossing folder, the colours, and the sentiment, and used three different inchie images instead of repeating the same image three times the way Bonnie did; and I did little squares instead of her little circles. I alternated the colours of the inchies and mounted them on squares cut with a postage stamp punch.
I love the way the red, white, and blue worked for a Christmas card!
I'm also entering the card in the Christmas Cards All Year Round blog challenge for July - "It's All About Santa".

Hi Susan. What a wonderful surprise to see this when I turned on my computer this morning! Love the vintage postage stamps and of course the embossing on the tag! Great job, my friend! Thanks so much.
