Freshly Made Christmas

Hi All,
As promised here is card number two of my Christmas in July class. I had gone on over to Freshly Made Sketches and they, of course, had a great sketch:

 

I loved the clean lay out! Here is what I came up with:

 

 

I used a base of Pool Party, some Smokey Slate, Whisper White and some Winter Frost DP I had picked up. I love the Silver Encore ink and how it goes with the metallic paper! Of course I used the Christmas Messages for my sentiment! A little button with some Bakers Twine and I was done! Love the layout! Have a great day!

Merry Saturday!

Hi All,
I am still finishing some final touches for my day at Its My Heart Keep the Beat walk tomorrow at Endicott Park!! In addition to my vintage stamp a stack that people can sign up for I thought I would start to offer my Christmas in July stamp a stack! Summer is a great time to get a heads start on your Christmas cards! Once Fall rolls around there is always to much to do! So I want have a few examples of what we will make on hand. A while ago I had stumbled across a great site that challenges you to make a Christmas card a week. Its called Always Playing with Paper and they have a "Merry Monday" every week! How fun right!!?? Here is the sketch for this week:

Here is what I came up with:

I "mixed" up using some of the old and the new. I used the new "Happy Hour" set for the sentiment and the now retired set "Pines and Poinsettias  Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you all tomorrow morning!
