Happy Festive Friyay!
It’s Day 31 of LucieG’s Christmas in July! This year was tough but I got through it and made my 31 cards (well 32 as I had one twofer).
Today I used the wonderful Simon Says Stamp Intricate Bottlebrush Trees die set and the notepad dies from Simply Graphic together with some Craft Consortium paper, glitter card and stickles!
The sentiment is from an older Altenew set called Christmas Stockings.

Hi there!
It’s Day 30 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
Today I wanted to create a festive version of this card that I created for Heart Week 2025 and this card for Egg Week 2025.
I wasn’t convinced that the design would work well with snowflakes which are far more delicate than the hearts and eggs that I previously used. Then I struck on the idea of adhering the snowflakes to circles which would schowcard each unique image and allow for layering! So I got cutting with my circle dies and punches and snowflake dies from Simon Says Stamp, Lawn Fawn and Heffy Doodle.
The sentiment is from a Mama Elephant set called Mini Holiday Messages.

Hi there!
It’s Day 29 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
A super simple CAS/Royal Mailable card today. The focal point is the delicate Simon Says Stamp Christmas Tree die from 2015 which I cut from some of my patterned mirror card – just look at those colours and the shimmer!
The sentiment is from a Pinkfresh set that I received for last year’s Create & Connect festive event.

Hi there!
It’s Day 22 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
For my super-simple card I finally used a bargain die called Snowflake Curl that I picked up from Simon Says Stamp last year! I cut it a couple of times from some of my fabulous Hunkydory patterned mirror card and arranged them around a sentiment from the It’s Just Paper Winter Sentiments stamp/die set that I got from Craftstash before it closed down.
I hadn’t opened the set before and was quite shocked to discover that the dies are solid – like the earliest coordinating dies on the market – so you have to cut the card first and then stamp the sentiment on the die cut. Thankfully this is an easy process with the Misti!
It was quite a difficult card to photograph because I really wanted to show off that fabulous mirror card with all its different colours, but I got there!

Hi there!
It’s Day 21 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
I love the Simon Says Stamp Heirloom Ornaments embossing folder which I got late last year. The inspiration from today’s card came from an uncredited card on Simon Says Stamp’s website – presumably made by a DT member who simply embossed a couple of kraft triangles to create adorned trees! Brilliant idea.
I kept my take super-simple and Royal Mailable with just one tree cut with a die from Altenew’s Festive Triangles Stamp Set.
The sentiment is from one of my go-to Mama Elephant sets called Holiday Messages.

Hi there!
It’s Day 20 of LucieG’s Christmas in July!
Welcome back to one of the cutest little Rudolphs in my collection – this chap is from the Ho Ho Deer Circle by Simon Says Stamp. I’ve used it a lot since I bought it back in 2019!
Today I paired him with a circle sentiment frame from My Favorite Things and also added an embossed background created with an older Crafters Companion folder.
Thanks for stopping by!
