Christmas in July

 Hi, hope you're doing well. Today I have a card to share with you that is one we made at a paper crafters class that I taught for 20 ladies today. I really enjoyed being with some wonderful card makers!


I thought this card was perfect to share for the Just Us Girls Challenge. It's their Die Week and they suggest that we use a die that is Old and Forgotten. 

I chose this elegant bow die a few years ago from The Greetery. It's fragile loops had just the flourished look I wanted for the focal point. The card is a simple fold design, with a pop up gift card holder inside. The DSP is from a box store, I wish the photo enabled you to better see the foiled gold and red berries that are part of the design. 

We're almost ready for the big holiday weekend here. Just popping in for a quick post this time! Now that preparing for the class is finished, next week I will beat the heat and play/create with some new goodies. See you soon! 

Be yourself

         Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!
