It is time for Christmas in July Cards

Hello my crafty friends. It may seem strange, but it is time to start working on our holiday cards. At last week’s workshop, we worked with great images from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set and dies, with traditional greens and reds.

This is a side fold A2 card: full sheet of 8 1/2" x 11” cardstock, cut in half at 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4", fold and burnish for a crisp edge. The mat is 4” x 5 1/4" in Real Red. The wreath is stamped in Shaded Spruce and die cut. The bottom panel in the photo is a piece of retire DSP (3 3/4" x 1 1/2"), however, the stripes can be made by a swipe of a stamp pad over a mask.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  The card is super simple and hopefully inspires you to pull out your stash and just make a card! If you want, you could add some basic twine or a ribbon in coordinating colors.

I (HEART):  Speaking of color, traditional reds and greens are my go-to colors for holiday cards. 😊

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope my project has inspired your creativity. I would love to see what you have created. Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.

Stamp On!!
