JOY With Non-Traditional Christmas Colors

Hello again, sweet blog friends!  As you may have read in my last post, I was really inspired by some of the Christmas in July challenges taking place and I really want to play along.  I don't often get the opportunity to enter challenges; so when I am able, I really like to do so.  It's so much fun, and gives me a reason to create cards just for fun.
This card was created with a fun (older) Crate Paper line called Peppermint from which I used the patterned papers, border sticker, ephemera, chipboard snowflake and stickers.  I also added some Olive Green Burlap String, a metal gem embellishment and a few red holly berries.  I stamped the sentiment (Joy To The World) on a journalling spot using a stamp set called Holy Night from Kaiser Craft.   The wool felt holly leaves were cut using the Meet Me Under The Mistletoe Sweet Cuts from Paper Sweeties.
Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope these fun Christmas in July challenges are getting you all fired up for Christmas...since it's just a few (5 or so) short months away, and will sneak up on us all before we know it.  I know that I've sure been having fun creating some Christmas cards in July, and I hope you'll play along as well.  We can all use having a few more Christmas cards ready to go before the holidays approach.  SO glad you stopped by!

  6. My name is Christian Hofman. This is a very happy day of my life thanks to the help that Dr. .nosakhare has given me to help me recover my ex-wife with his spell of love and magic. I was married for 6 years and it was so terrible because my wife was really cheating and looking for a divorce, but when I came across Dr..nosakhare email on the internet about how he has helped so many people get their ex back and help fix the relationship and make people happy in their relationship. I explained my situation and then I sought his help, but to my greatest surprise, he told me that he would help me with my case and that I am now celebrating because my wife has totally changed for the better. She always wants to be by my side and can not do anything without my present. I am really enjoying my marriage, what a great celebration. I will continue to testify on the Internet because Dr..nosakhare is a true spell caster. NEED HELP? CONTACT
