CAS Christmas ~ August 12 Days of Christmas!

Hi friends and welcome to another CAS Christmas Challenge!
This challenge is brought to us by Susan and it is all about the 12 Days of Christmas!

I pulled out a stamp from CAS-UAL FRIDAYS called "A Partridge in a Pear Tree"
I colored it with copics.
I hope you will be inspired by the team and our Special Guest MEG of Bits and Pieces and join us with a Christmas card for your stash.  The months are flying by and before you know it, it will be December!  Come play with us while it is a stress - less time!
Heart Hugs, friends!

What a fabulous image of a partridge in a pear tree - it's adorable. Great colouring, and I love the way you set it off the left edge and added the strip of red paper to balance it. Thanks so much for making a wonderful card for the challenge I'm hosting.

This is the cutest partridge I've ever seen! Love the tree sitting in the present box, so cute. You are right, the time is flying by. It is truly hard to believe this is August already, especially since I haven't done anything all year!

I don't know about it being a stress-less time, Col, but it sure helps cheer me up and calm me down to look at your beautiful Christmas card! That's a fantastic partridge and pear image and I love the way you laid your sediment on the side as part of the border! Pinning this design!! I hope you're keeping well! Hugs, Darnell
