Just Because - ShowCASe Your Style challenge

Okay, now that we've taken down the Christmas decorations (except the trees), I spent a little time at my craft table.  Ahhh...and I enjoyed it!
I'm sharing one of 2 cards that I created for the ShowCASe Your Style Challenge #5 - die cut theme.

As you can see, we are to use at least one die cut.  Well...I used lots of die cuts on my card.

I cut the cover plate from white card stock first, then chose 9 colors of card stock to die cut and place inside the negative spaces.  It took a lot longer than I thought it would, but it was well worth it.  It turned out to be one of those cards that just makes me smile!
Thanks for taking a look!
