Christmas in July

Hi Stampers, I have a Christmas card for you today! Are you wondering why I would be making a Christmas card here in the middle of summer? Well, I send out almost 200 handmade Christmas cards each year, so it is never too early to start.

            Stamps: Easy Events 
            Paper: Crumb Cake, Gumball Green, Very Vanilla, Be of Good Cheer DSP 
            Ink: Black Stazon, Gumball Green 
            Accessories: Blender Pen, Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details, Gumball Green Satin
                    Stitched Ribbon, 2-1/2" Circle punch, 2-3/8" Scallop Circle punch, Scallop
                    edge punch, Dimensionals 

This card is simple but fun! The base is Crumb Cake cardstock, with a piece of Gumball Green satin stitched ribbon tied all the way around it. I used the Scallop Edge punch on a little strip of Gumball Green cardstock and attached that to the bottom of some striped designer paper from the Be of Good Cheer paper pack. I stamped the image from the Easy Events stamp set on Very Vanilla in Black Stazon and colored it with Gumball Green ink and a blender pen and added Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details on the berries. I punched that image out with a 2-3/8" Scallop Circle punch and matted it with a 2-1/2" Gumball Green circle, then attached it to the card front with Dimensionals. Viola, hope you like it!
