Can I mention the C word in July?! It seems that crafters are the only ones who are OK with it... everyone else shouts or tuts!
Here is my first Christmas card of the year.
'May the love that was born that Christmas night light all your days with joy and hope'
And then masked it off.
I have used my newly acquired cut n dry and some cyan ink pads to 'blue up' the card stock and then randomly stamped stars. I also used a white in pad that is really pearly and shiny.
I'm going to link this card up with:
Lollipop Crafts - Christmas in July
The Crafters Cafe - Christmas in July - Non traditional colours
CASE study - Layout, stars and colour inspiration
CASual Fridays - 'Text Me'
Thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteI have a "Rudolph Day" challenge each 25th of the month on my blog (lasts a week)to encourage fellow crafters to make festive cards throughout the year so they are not rushing around at that busy time of the year. You're welcome to join in.
Anyhoo . . . back to your card . . .it's beautiful. I love the colours and the sentiment.
