Christmas in July

 I have the day off for the holiday, so I decided to make a Christmas card. I have had a lot on my plate lately, and my priorities are leaning toward ministry and spending time with God. So I will come back to crafting occasionally, hopefully more often than not. But I will follow God’s leading and I’m ok with that!

Today’s card uses the sketch from Atlantic Hearts, the banner theme from Heart 2 Heart, and some colors from the Crazy 8 challenge at Color My Heart. I went in a slightly different direction and used red and green with brown to make Christmas colors!






Materials used:

Cardstock: White Daisy, New England Ivy, Candy Apple, Saddle

Ink: New England Ivy, Saddle, Candy Apple, Archival Black

Stamps: Doodled Borders

Other: Ivy Lane Assortment, Pink Glitter Gems, Prisma Glitter

Thanks for stopping by, and hope to see you soon!
