Clearly Besotted

The very talented Steph has recently launched her own stamp sets and her own company 'Clearly Besotted Stamps'.........her style is very different to mine.......very clean and simple.......not to mention elegant......but I love her cards....and couldn't resist her Christmas stamp set.....and while I'll never really achieve CAS.......these cards are definately a lot less elaborate than my usual ones.....but I love the result.
I couldn't resist a little bit of patterned paper........I used Authentique papers.....with Stampin Up card and ink pad......just a little red to perk it all up. Sadly the light is not good for photos here right now.....in fact it's freezing here right now......though I'm pleased to say the snow hasn't reached this far south [fingers crossed!]
The stamps are lovely to use......and stamp so well........why not pop over to Clearly Besotted and take a look at the whole range.

These are great Jacky. I think you've achieved the CAS while still staying true to your own style - great job.

You've certainly rocked this set Jacky, your trees look fab. Steph is a tallented gal isn't she.
Hope you've had a lovely weekend.

They are very different from your usual cards, but just as lovely. I like the splash of red you used--it perks up the cards.

Being a fan of CAS, you just know I love these cards. Aside from a December Countdown set for my Christmas journal I am NOT buying any Christmas stamps. See those caps---a constant reminder as I look at all the new holiday stamps I love!
