Hey hey hey! Hope your weekend was fun!
Today I have this card to share for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps; Michele designed the greatest Hanukkah set called 8 Happy Nights. I paper pieced the star and stamped the sentiment in dark blue ink. The rest of the card involved some simple layering and foam tape. I think this could be fun to make with a variety of blue patterns for the star.
Head on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the team all week long!
Hugs,

It’s month #5 of our 12 Kits of Christmas project, and this month’s hostess is Joyce! If you’d like to read about how this group started and works, please read this post.
This month, Joyce sent us a kit full of supplies to make Hanukkah projects, which was a special treat for me since I don’t have anything like what she sent. I also think her kit was the easiest for me to work with by far - I’ve got lots to show today and I was able to put them all together in record time. I am quite excited about that!
The card above was made using a sketch you may have seen here before - it’s from one of Lucy Abrams’ sketch challenges from last winter. I thought it was a great way to showcase the beautiful papers that Joyce sent us.
Next up is this adorable box diecut, which I do not own and am now SO tempted to buy. It was a breeze to assemble and decorate and I just love the shape.
I went clean and simple again on another card, with a little bit of stitching and ribbon, hoping to keep the diecut in the center as the main showcase of the card. I do love the plaid on this paper though.
Joyce also sent us some tags! I love tags, and was really excited about the diecut on the right since I also don’t have that one, or the one that was used to make those delicate and gorgeous circular flowers/wreaths. I love the triangles too.
Lastly, I have one last card to share; this time, I added more stitching to the top and to the bottom, and added some gold silky crush ribbon from RibbonCarousel.com.
