Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the U.S. I hope it is a joyful holiday for you and your family! I have a joy-filled card to share today for the Addicted to CAS Challenge which is appropriately:
As soon as I saw the challenge I knew just what stamp set would be perfect: "Season of Joy" by Ink to Paper.
I love this beautiful shade of red cardstock which I picked up at the Gina K shop in Wisconsin when we were visiting Sarah in October. Everything on this card came from the same set with accompanying dies. The sentiment was embossed in gold, and the letters for JOY were die cut from gold paper that is backed with adhesive.
The wreath was stamped with three shades of Pinkfresh Studio inks with details added from Polychromos colored pencils. The final touch was to add some tiny red pearls from A Muse that have been in my stash for years. I loved them so much I bought multiple packages when it appeared they would be discontinued. I still have plenty, even though I use them frequently.
We'll be off later this afternoon to Tracy's sister's for the holiday meal. I'm the pie lady, and have three offerings: pumpkin, apple caramel crunch, and a red pear galette. The last two are new recipes, and let's hope they meet with approval.
