Peace on Earth

 

Today is the 15th and this is my card this month for our The Creative Crew!  We are a group of 6--Jeanette, Darlene, Lorraine, Terry, Tracie and me. Each month will be a new challenge posed by one of the members sending out a kit. For January, we are using our own stash and making a card with snow--snowmen, snow angels, snowflakes, etc.  

I decided to make a couple of Christmas Cards to add to my stash for 2026.  I really like this Taylored Expressions Peace on Earth Cutting Plate.  I cut two panels of The Paper Cut's Crystal Diamond cardstock with the plate.  For the background, I used a piece of patterned paper from the recent Stampin' Up Peaceful Garden Designer Series paper pack and a piece of blue glitter cardstock, also from Stampin' Up. I decided I needed some light in the windows of the blue panel, so I die cut the plate again from Crushed Curry to add to the church.  The sentiment is also from Taylored Expressions and is called All is Calm.  The set has matching dies and I embossed the words with Brutus Monroe Sterling embossing powder.  I layered it a few times with die cut pieces for a bit of dimension on these otherwise flat cards.  

I hope all of The Creative Crew Gals enjoy my card this month.  Please be sure to stop in to see what fun crafty cards are posted this month.  All of the blogs can be found on my left sidebar.  Our teammate Lorraine does not have a blog, so please check out her card in her SCS gallery.   I am sure you will enjoy all of the fun, snowy cards!

For February, Darlene is up for our challenge. Be sure to check in with us on the 15th to see what fun is planned!
