Christmas in July.....

It's unbelievable how hot and dry this summer has been, and it has only just begun!  Even the weeds are wilting....and the grass is burnt up and yellow.  So thankful for air conditioning!  I think it's time for a Christmas card....


Here we go with something nice and easy for a summer make, to maybe cool things down.   A lovely Christmas image stamped in green with added copic colouring.  Some pretty DP and some gold peel offs for a bit of trimmings.  A simple make and quite festive, I think I might make some more of these.

Supplies used:
Papers from MME - Merry Days of Christmas
Stampendous - Holly Points stamp
Spellbinders - Asian Motifs die
Gold peel of stickers

Thanks for stopping by...stay cool everyone, and share some rain please!!
