Stampin! with Jaydee

Hi Everyone.  Happy Sunday.

It's the fabulous Sandy's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a CAS challenge with a twist.  

I have a Memory Box stamp that I bought many years ago and still love to use it on CAS Christmas cards.  I knew it would be perfect for this challenge.  I paired it with some Silver embossing powder and Stampin' Up! silver foil specialty card stock.

 I really like the look of the silver foil card stock behind the focal image as it frames the image without overpowering it, and, of course, I really love the script look of the font with the "peace" as the main element.  It would look good in gold, too :-)

The design team have created some amazing cards for your inspiration.  I hope you will pop along to their blogs and check out their cards.

We hope that you will play along with us this week.  We would really love to see what you create with this CAS challenge with a twist.

On a personal note:

I think I am going to have to give in to the fact that winter is on the way and that we are well and truly into fall.  The air is crisp, but we still managed to sit outside for a little while tonight and watch the setting sun before it got just too cold.  The cats have been loving sitting in the safety of the screened-in porch watching the birds and, especially, keeping an eye out for the chipmunk!

I'll be back on Tuesday with another project.  In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.

Hugs

Jaydee
