Yet Another Christmas in July

Edited: If you like these images the lovely Kay found the link here.

Ok so I am on a roll, I have now made three cards for Christmas and all from the same piece of patterned paper too. This is the last of the cat ones for the moment any who and I decided to break out the glitter especially. I have had this tinsel glitter from studio g for about two years and I have pots and pots of it and this is the first time I have used it, shame on me lol.

I have enjoyed making these cards and hopefully this means I will be more organised this year but I seriously doubt it lol.



Ingredients:

Cardstock: "Gumball Green" Stampin up
Sentiment: "Think Big Favourites" Papertrey Ink, ink: "scarlett jewel" papertrey ink

Christmas in July

So with the heat reaching 28 on most days and my craft room being a sun trap I picked this time to finally make a start on my Christmas cards, I don't know why the extreme heat has made me feel christmassy but it has and I have even bought a few gifts too, maybe I have heat stroke lol.

I have used an image that the lovely Janey used last year and I coveted it but ran out of time to use it so it is only fitting that it is the first image I use this year.

Coloured with my deloved copics and no glossy accents in sight it only needed the minimum of fuss to make this uber cas card. The cherry cobbler cardstock matches the scarlett jewel ink perfectly, I used a small piece to mat the paper and there was enough left over to make another card.

I have been using my perfect layers tools and an loving the fact that everything is even so pleased I persuaded my good friend Jane to part with them. It needs a little something in the top corner and the wrinkle sorted too but there is plenty of time before it needs to be sent out.
