Congrats for CYCI

Hello Stampers!

Did you enjoy those videos using products from the Holiday Catalog?  I thought you would!

I haven't participated in any challenges recently, not that I haven't wanted to, because I really enjoy them, but rather, the timing just hasn't worked out for me.

That's about to change.  Today I have a card that I am submitting for this week's challenge over at Can You Case It?  They have a color challenge this week...and I happened to have a card in mind that was a good fit!

Here is the challenge:





And here is my card:
