Blogger's Challenge - Week #11

This week's challenge was to copy the layout of the card in the Holiday mini catalog on page 12.

I found this one fun to do and used the new Simply Scrappin' Hostess Kit for this challenge. The difficult part for me was not using my stamps but using the pre-adhesive die cuts that come in the kit in place of stamped images!

I do love the new In color line and how well everything coordinates! Here are a couple of variations on the star card in the holiday mini catalog on pg. 12.

Enjoy!

Great idea to use the die cuts -- I bet this went together in a snap and they are terrific cards!
