Christmas in July 2025 – Day 23

Hi there!

It’s Day 23 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025!

I still love my older Memory Box tree dies from 10+ years ago and decided that I needed to dedicate some time them again this month.

First up is the stunning Elyse Christmas tree. Isn’t it beautiful? I coloured some card with Speckled Egg distress ink for the tree – the second photo is more true to colour I think!

I mounted it to a couple of Spellbinders dies – The second layer was originally silver pearlescent card but I decided it was too heavy for the tree so switched to two white layers instead.

The sentiment is by Mama Elelphant.

Christmas in July 2025 – Day 21

Hi there!

It’s Day 21 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025!

It’s time to ink up Papertrey Ink’s fabulous Enchanted Forest tree stamps again! I was shocked to learn that this stamp set is from 2018 – I’m pretty sure that I only bought them a few years ago but a quick search of my blog reveals that I actually bought them in summer 2020!

I arranged my selection of trees on a Spellbinders die cut and added a Clearly Besotted sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas in July 2025 – Day 20

Hi there!

It’s Day 20 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025!

I’ve been missing creating with my Pinkfresh Studio supplies this month as I don’t have many festive products by them. But today I pulled out a product suite called Joy of the Season which I had as part of the October 2024 Create and Connect event.

I really like the arch design but I’ve been struggling with how to use it. Well today I realised that it would be a perfect frame to showcase a pretty embossed background! I chose the beautiful Pinecones & Berries folder by Spellbinders.

The sentiment is by Poppystamps.

Christmas in July 2025 – Day 19

Hi there

It’s Day 19 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025 and I have a another twofer for you today.

I love the large shaped card die sets that I have by Bibi Cameron/Spellbinders and have been hoping for a Christmas tree set at some point. Today, I decided that I would create my own shaped tree card with an older Concord & 9th tree die that I picked up in a sale recently.

I used a couple of shades of green ink to create backgrounds that I then die cut. I partially cut a couple of card bases to create a shaped card base and adhered the die cut trees on top, hiding the section of the folded card that was not die cut.

For the ornament tree, I used dies by Concorde & 9th and Memory Box. The glittery foliage card uses dies by Crealies, Spellbinders and Simply Graphic.

I am so pleased that both these cards stand nicely on the little trunks!

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas in July 2025 – Day 17

Hi there!

It’s Day 17 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025!

I love the Swirly Tree by Dixie Craft and was excited to use it again today. I had originally planned to use it with a diffused embossed background but I didn’t really like how it turned out so I CASE’d one of my own cards from November 2023. I created an ink blended background using Pinkfresh inks and added a little trunk from another die cut. I think it completes the image, don’t you?

I used a Spellbinders/Simon Hurley embossing folder with matt silver mirror card. The sentiment is by Mama Elephant.

Christmas in July 2025 – Day 15

Hi there!

It’s Day 15 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2025!

Today’s trees are courtesy of Stampin’ Up’s Decorative Tree set which I got last year. You do not want to know how many iterations I went through before settling on this card. I tried so many colours for the stamped trees and turned to my silver ink in desperation – it was a great relief when I liked the effect!

The oval frame was created using a couple of Pinkfresh dies and the sentiment id by Clearly Besotted.

Thanks for stopping by!
