CAS(E) This Sketch #150

Just a quick post with the card I made for CAS(E) This Sketch.
I got these stocking dies from Paper Smooches a long time ago and thought it was time I used them.  The  'fireplace' is made with embossing paste on my MFT brick stencil, leaving it rather rough.  I took a scrap of the Altenew wood panel that was in my leftover box for the mantel and cut the sentiment 4 times with an Elizabeth Crafts die.

I mentioned a while ago that I had found a box of Christmas cards that I forgot about last year.  I got them out to count them and with the ones I have made so far I have more than enough for my mailing list.  I'm sure there will be more challenges so I'll get a head start for next year.  How are you all coming with yours?

"And the stockings were hung on the chimney with care..." Your stockings are delightful, Bobby...the curliques make me smile! My Christmas card making: Round 2! I brought all I'd made to my mom...time to get my own done, not to mention part 2 of the Advent (sort of) calendar for my niece and nephew! I'm in a bit of a frenzy...
By the way, Chai Latte it is...they're visiting right now! Hugs and prayers coming to you and your dad....
