Holiday Card

>> Tuesday, July 8, 2014

Hi Everyone,
It's Christmas in July time, and that means getting a jump on your holiday cards :)  I love making Christmas cards, especially when I'm not stressed out thinking about how much shopping I need to get done.  And it's a great way to cool off this time of year, even if it's just metaphorically.
This card is simple, made from pieces parts that I saved from last year.  When I'm playing around getting ideas, I save all those things that I didn't use in my finished card.  Since I had a finished piece of patterned paper made from the Woven Plaid  Background Stamp, a colored up Reindeer Ralph, and a punched 1 Line Merry Christmas, this came together in a jiffy.

All I did was add ribbon, gems and holly leaves, and some Stickles to his nose :)
Woo Hoo!  First card of the year done!  Only 50 more to go...lol.  Small victories. 

Thanks for peeking in today!
