Note 11-10: Photos replaced this afternoon. Retook them with better light. Hope it helps!
My card for today started out as a CASE! I love this card by Kelly Schmirer from the last WMSC. I had it saved in my inspiration file so when Claire announced there is a competition where we were to CASE something done by one of the design team, I went back to find this one. I wasn't sure it qualified as this was not one of the SOAP posts. But no problem as it eventually just grew into a 3-panel card that I can use for this week's WMSC. When I began I was going to use the snowman from A Cottage Christmas with trees stamped with the Nordic Winter set. After die cutting and stamping them and finishing the star, I realized they were a little too large for what I wanted. So I went to the three panels. I wasn't sure about how to do the shaped tops but found an EK punch that seemed to work. The card was cut to 10 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches before I punched the top. It was scored and folded into thirds. This was a little more time consuming but the very best part was I was able to use a bunch of my new stamps and also a couple of
new dies!
The cottage from A Cottage Christmas was colored with Copics and dusted with 'glittery snow'.
The star is from Sewing Box: Hugs and the lamb is from my newest WM set, L'il Buddies. Isn't he adorable! The sentiments are from A Cottage Christmas and Say It Loud-Winter Holiday. 'Peace' is cut from felt using a new PTI die.
Hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it!
Smiles,
Sharron

This is just so cute! I especially love the little lamb, and hearing how the project grew from the original CASE to a 3-panel sketch challenge effort!
Beautiful project!
This is beautiful Sharron! I love the snowy house, and the little scenes you have created, something I don't feel confident doing. Love those hills, and the little lamb beneath the star, the trees and all the sparkle. Gorgeous gorgeous card!
