2015 Christmas Card #13


I love CASE challenges and over at CASEing Christmas they have a fun twist this time - you should CASE one of your own cards, a favorite and one with a non-holiday theme. I chose to CASE a card I made back in May - see the small photo or the link to the original post here.
My inspiration was the shaker part with sequins, I placed a die cut tree (Memory Box) like I did with the Eiffel Tower, and I used a pair of carolers instead of cats.
The image used I belive is one from Limitied Runs. Papers are Maja Design and stiched ovals are from Dienamics.

This card is for these challenges:
1) CASE-ing Christmas - CASE your favorite card
2) Simply Create Too - #89 Get ahead for Christmas
3) Crafty Calendar - Christmas in July
4) Challenge Up Your Life - Sequins
