Hi there!
Welcome to Day 28 of Christmas in July! Today I’m playing along with the Jingle Bells challenge – they have an amazing colourful inspiration photo for their challenge and I was particularly drawn to the garland on the fireplace which I tried to replicate on my tree using mini pompoms I bought during a trip to the US last year.
The tree is an older one called Tannenbaum by Penny Black and I used a sentiment from a Hero Arts set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!
Welcome to Day 27 of Christmas in July! Today I’m playing along with the Case this Sketch challenge.
I decided to use the cute Rudolph from the Ho Ho Ho Deer Circle die by Simon Says Stamp! Can you believe I bought this cutie during last Stamptember but I never got round to using him last Christmas? I paired him with a sentiment from an older Hero Arts stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Sunday all!
Welcome to Day 26 of Christmas in July! Today I’m playing along with the Card Concept challenge which has a wonderful graphic for their Christmas in July inspiration challenge. There is just so much inspiration in one photo – the retro colours, the rustic vibe, the amazing white light and window!
I knew I had to use the fabulous My Monthly Hero kit from October 2019 once again and finally inked up my favourite stamp from the set – isn’t that tree fabulous? I coloured it with my Twinkling H2Os and added a Reverse Confetti frame die, reflecting the window in the inspiration photo.
To complete my card, I added a sentiment by Mama Elephant.
Thanks for stopping by!

Can you believe it’s Day 25of Christmas in July? I am totally loving the challenge I set myself! Today I’m playing along the Freshly Made Sketches challenge .
I used the wreath and twig dies Joy Crafts and the cardinals are from a set by Simon Says Stamp.
The sentiment is by My Favorite Things.

Happy Friyay!
Welcome to Day 24 of Christmas in July! I didn’t have much time to craft today so I created a very quick and simple card using the beautiful Christmas Wonderland die by Penny Black. I used a stencilled background I created sometime ago – so grateful I didn’t throw it out when I didn’t use it on a project! The sentiment is from a set by Hero Arts.
I’m entering this into the Penny Black Saturday Challenge where the theme is either nature or anything goes.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello All!
Welcome to Day 23 of Christmas in July! Today I’m playing along with one of my favourite challenges – the Color Throwdown challenge. This week’s colour palette (orange, green and yellow) is not a typical festive palette but I made it work using my new Birch Press Design Radiant Ornament die set. I added a layer of holographic card behind the ornament – love the shimmery effect!
Looking at the card now, I think I may have gone a bit overboard with the green distress inks!
To complete my card, I added a sentiment by Simon Says Stamp.
Thanks for stopping by!
