Christmas in July

 I didn't think I was going to finish this card in time,  but I did! My last link up for the Build your stash holiday cardmakers linky party : Christmas in July.


I used stamps and papers by Whimsy stamps.

Christmas in July

 I cranked out another card for the Build your stash holiday cardmakers linky party: Christmas in July. 

And by cranked... that's a slow turn. It took me all night and I'm not sure how I feel about it, but someone will receive it. Lol! 


It's a grungy watercolor. Although, I colored the dogs with colored pencils. The whole thing is sprayed with fairy mist. 

The bkg stencil is A Colorful Life Designs and the dog tree stamp set is Unity Stamp Com
pany.  

The wonky stitched circle die is Kat Scrappiness.

Christmas in July

It's slowly, but surely... getting some Christmas cards made for the Build your stash holiday cardmakers linky party: Christmas in July. 

I just recently got this set by Colorado Craft Company,  and it's so cute! I watercolored it quickly....

The sentiment on bottom right is Waffleflower crafts.

I switched the circles because it didn't look good the other way, since my penguin is facing left. 😁

Christmas in July

 I have another Christmas card made and ready to link up for the Build your stash holiday cardmakers linky party : Christmas in July. 

My card:

The floor stamp is Ink blot shoppe, but the rest are pink and main as is the stencil for the background. 

I used arch dies to create hole and frame. I embossed the Brick background, inked with brick red distress ink and then blot it with a baby wipe. I like how it turned out. 


Christmas in July

 It's time for the Build your stash holiday cardmakers linky party: Christmas in July.


My first card to link up:

I used the "left over" woodgrain foil piece, from using it on a Unity Stamps toner card front, on a black toner sheet. It turned out pretty cool, but... hard to photo. 

Stamps are Pink and Main. Wood heart die set is Impression Obsession. Other dies are TSOL. I added a Santa hat sticker.

P&M ocean

 


The Pink and Main July card challenge is Ocean.

My card is pretty simple, but I love how it turned out. 


I used patterned paper and the stamp set Waving Hello from P&M. 

I decided to use the jellyfish from the set. I stamped it onto vellum. I stamped, colored, and fussy cut the flowers from white cardstock. I used dimensional tape under the jelly fish and also under the flowers. I sprayed the whole card with Lindy's Stamp Gang Fairy mist, let dry, then glued a few places of the jellyfish down, but not all so it has the appearance of movement.
