New Game at AAA Cards



Happy Sunday! 
This is the first post of three that I have scheduled today, so be sure to stop back by though out the day to see the others. It's time for a new game at AAA Cards, Upcycling (use anything that you did not purposely buy for crafting). Our sponsor is Happy Little Stampers, offering a $20 gift voucher to their store. 


 I have to admit, I had a hard time with this one, but I finally came up with some rhinestone that were bought to put on my nails and some thread. 
I can't wait to see what y'all come up with, just remember to keep it CAS.

To make my card I started with a top folding white card base. I used the Star of Light bundle from the new Holiday Mini. I cut the background to the star in Island Indigo and then the star in white. I added some thread behind it to give it more dimension. To finish the card, I stamped the greeting from the Star of Light set and added some rhinestones for sparkle.
