Simply Sunday … Christmas in July

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Yesterday I shared the specials that will be gone at the end of July and the new ones that will be starting in August … so today I want to share a beautiful card that marries two of them together! I’m using the Blended Seasons bundle from the Color Your Season Limited Time promotions with the Designer Series Paper.

We made this card at my Star’s Team meeting yesterday along with a fall card from the same bundle … plus swapping with the other ladies who attended. It was a wonderful day reconnecting, fun, stamping and introducing new members.

I began with the “Under the Mistletoe” Designer Series paper (currently on sale) and teamed it up with the Blended Seasons Stamp Set in which I used the Holly Spray and the Merry Christmas Greeting. I used the “second” of the three shaped dies to cut Whisper White. These dies have the stitching of “both” sides of the cut!! So you can use the shape and the cut out for your cardmaking.

Once the shape is cut out, I stamped the holly spray on the top and bottom … it fits in there so nice!!

We then used the Stampin’ Blends to color our holly. We used the coordinating Old Olive Stampin’ Blends along with the Cherry Cobbler and Daffodil Delight. They works so nicely with this bundle. You will also love the Watercolor Pencils in the new colors. Either one you use … a touch of Stella won’t hurt!!

I stamped the greeting onto a strip of Real Red cardstock and punched the ends with the Triple Banner punch. The entire piece was popped up and the completes my Christmas in July card for today!

I will keep the promotions listed below until the end of the month …
