Snowy Reindeer (CD #31, SSS: Let It Snow, CASology 74, CFC 123)

I had just a tiny bit of time a couple days ago to make a card, so naturally I turned to the 10 Minute Craft Dash #31 for inspiration.  I also noticed two three :) snow inspired challenges--Simon Says Say...Let It SnowCASology cue card snowflake, and CAS-ual Fridays Let It Snow--so I used them to determine the theme of my card.  
 
This CAS card came together super fast (5 minutes 4 seconds).  I hope that it was okay that I used the Craft Dash colors (if you didn't notice, the reindeer's belly is yellow) on a kraft background.  Most consider it a neutral, so I'm hoping they do, too. :) I thought about embossing glittery snowflakes on white, but I've been really wanting to do an all stamping card lately, so that's why I went with kraft.  Well, I'm off to wrap presents.  I don't know if I'll have much time to craft in the next few weeks.  Though I tried really hard to simplify and plan ahead this year, somehow I'm still feeling like I don't have enough time to get the things done that I need to do before Christmas.  Thanks for taking the time to stop by...I'm sure you all are super busy, too. :)

  5. Ack! So cute, Lindsey! I love one layer cards and I like that you took the time to add some shine to his nose and still made the dash! Love the sprinkling of snowflakes, too. I think CASual Fridays latest challenge is "Let it Snow"--this would be perfect!!

I think this one layer card is the cutest...I think that is my style...kind of CAS, maybe not always one layer, but lots of white space! This reindeer could just fly off the page...love him!!
