Christmas card in July #3

Hello everyone!!! Wow has it been a busy July. We just returned from our summer vacation, 14 days. We saw family in Las Vegas and then traveled to Montana, where I am from, to see my dad. I loved the weather there so cool. We also saw two cub bears but no mama....:(  good for us but sad for the bears. I like to take a picture of my kids every time we visit of my kids on this one road that leads no where but makes a perfect setting for the picture.



Ok, on to the Christmas in July card for Whimsy Stamps.  This week I used a stamp from Wee Stamps called Mr. Frosty.


I love this guy!! Colored him with my Copics and added some sequins and stickles.

Hope this inspires you!
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!!

Christmas in July is here!!

Ok, so writing this post is kind of hard when I am on summer vacation but it had to be done.  I have to admit I have never done Christmas cards in July but I am still kind of new to the card making scene. So Whimsy stamps is having Christmas in July this month.

For my first card I used a Crissy Armstrong stamp called "Jolly Santa".



I colored this cutie with my Copics and added some snow-tex by his feet for snow. Glittered up some "Ho ho ho's" and called it a day.

Hope this gets you in the Christmas spirit a little....:)   I know it's hard!!!

Have a great July 4th holiday!!
