I’m still on my Christmas card making bonanza and I have used the post title ‘Merry Christmas’ so many times these last few weeks that I just had to mix it up a bit! Not that ‘Glitter and Bling’ is very original but hey my brain isn’t functioning properly by this time of year as we helter skelter towards 25th December LOL.

Today’s card is for this week’s CASE Study Challenge and being the first of the month we have the delight of welcoming a new muse! Now I’ve been a big fan of our muse for a long time, I think she has been in my blog reader since the very early days. Not only does she make the most outstanding projects but her photography is fabulous too. When you visit her blog it’s such a treat for the eyes ……… our muse this month is Keisha Campbell! Here’s the inspiration for this week:

Totally hip and gorgeous! I took the neutral colours, big bow and top aligned panel and muted the colours for a soft but sparkly card. There are a couple of bits from the Simon Says Stamp Holiday Card Kit on here – I used the Peppermint Stripe stencil for some embossing paste and also the great little Holiday Hellos stamp set – love the font on that Merry Christmas sentiment! I used the Wrapped Mailing Label die to cut my rounded panels and the Perfect Bow was cut from some silver glitter card :)

Not only do we have a new muse for November but we also have a new guest joining the Design Team; give a big CASE Study welcome to the amazing Amy Tsuruta! Please pop by the CASE Study blog to see Keisha and Amy’s creations as well as those from the Design Team :)
