Simply Create Too...Christmas in July - challenge #65



Ho Ho Ho...it's that time of year, Christmas in July! The current challenge at Simply Create Too is just that and you still have plenty of time to play along, so pull out some of your holiday stamps and make a card so you can play too. I know this all sounds rather silly but even Hallmark is in the spirit, the new holiday ornaments are out and just last weekend they had holiday movies playing all weekend...so much fun. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by...enjoy your weekend!

  7. How funny, I've been playing around with glitter paper myself today. Hope to finish it off shortly so I can go to bed!! I LOVE this card. The texture and different papers make such a wonderful effect, anyone would be so happy to receive this beauty! I've nearly finished the frustrating loom bracelet for Max, will put a photo on one of my posts (if I ever finish it!!!!!). Enjoy your weekend and the sunshine!

  14. Oh yes, my mother-in-law has been glued to the Hallmark channel all week. She's seen many of the movies 17 or 18 times, she said : ) Love the partial sleigh on your card with the parking sign. Great scene!

  16. Shimmery snow drifts, snowflakes falling, Santa's sleigh parked at his special spot (I believe I have that stamp!)...Christmas thoughts definitely evoked (although where we are the temperatures are hovering at the 90s, which is sooooooo unusual in our experience). Fabulous, fun, fresh - and inspiring. Yes, I need to get started on some Christmas cards...soonish...
    Hugs~c
