CASology #15 - Night

Hello, friends!  After a crazy week at work, I am so happy to have some time to finally make a card!  (Thank God for this wonderful outlet!)

I was over-the-top excited to find out that one of my cards was a Fab Five winner over at Hero Arts, and in celebration I decided to use the same stamp set to make a card for the current challenge at CASology

I will also enter it into the Hero Arts Holiday Cardmaking monthly contest.

When I heard "night," my first reaction was to make a Halloween card.  However, I struggled with a clean and simple design.  So I scrapped that idea and went with my next thought, "silent night." 

A cream card, some black ink, an awesome Christmas stamp set, distress inks, some masking, and a few spritzes of Perfect Pearls Mist...that's all it took.




I love the extra shine the spritzes of Perfect Pearls Mists adds to the card...and I love that the card is still one layer.




I am starting to put aside some cards (including this one) to send in for the Caring Hearts Card Drive...have you heard about it?  Check it out HERE.  I have sent in cards every year and I am so thrilled that Vera is doing it again. 



Finally, I want to say thanks so much for all your sweet comments here and at my Flickr photostream...it is such an honor to be in the company of such thoughtful, generous ladies.  You renew my faith in humankind!

Have a great day,
Judy
