Happy Wednesday friends! It's Christmas in July and so we are creating Christmas cards and building our stash all month long!
I woke up at 4AM and decided to play along in the Kat Scrappiness Christmas in July Challenge. I chose die cuts, stamps, snow and focal sentiment HOHOHO, Merry Christmas! I love how this card turned out! Although, I do not have any Kat Scrappiness products (yet) you are still eligible to win the $25 prize. How awesome is that?
I began with ink blending the Ho, Ho, Ho Stencil from Papertrey Ink onto a panel of black cardstock. I adhered it to a red mat which was then adhered to a white mat. I wrapped some red & white twine around the mats and then adhered it to a black card base. Lots of layers for Good O' Saint Nick!
I then stamped the image from My Favorite Things, Jingle All the Way. I colored it with Copic markers and used my Scan N Cut machine to cut it out. The sentiment is also from My Favorite Things, Itty Bitty Holiday which I stamped on red cardstock in black ink. I adhered the image and sentiment on foam strips for dimension. To complete the card, I added red & silver sequins for some sparkle.
Thank you so much for dropping in with me today! Have a great rest of your day!
