Christmas in July CardzTV Challenge #1



I know Christmas is a long way off and July 4th is tomorrow, but I really needed some inspiration so when I saw this challenge over at CardzTV I decided to go for it! It's also a nice change from doing birthday cards which I've been doing for the past months. The challenge was to make a Christmas card with pink, green, red, white and black only. This card is pretty simple. The sleigh is cut from Christmas Cheer and I used my Gypsy so I don't know the exact size. The tag in the sleigh, as well as the top mat are paper from a K & Co. pad. The black and white dotted paper is from the DCWV La Creme stack and the green base is also DCWV. The top layer of the sleigh is that wonderful pink prism paper from Wal-Mart. The biggest challenge was popping the sleigh up with the tiniest foam pieces so that they couldn't be seen. I sort of accomplished that, I think! I had fun making it anyway, and now I've got at least one Christmas card done way ahead of time- so unlike me! Thanks for looking and I intend to start posting again as I have several things I've done over the last few months I'd like to share. Have a great 4th of July!!
