Christmas in July!


Hello! This card was made for the Shirley's 2 Girls Twisted Thursday challenge. The challenge was to make a Christmas card, follow the sketch, and the twist was to use distressing. So, I distressed my main image panels. The colors are Basic Gray and Bravo Burgundy. I promise you, it is! It SO does not look it in this picture. And I'm on a sewing kick right now, so the only thing I can do is faux sewing until I purchase a real sewing machine. I got the goods on a Janome online, so sometime this week, I'll be doing a little online shopping!

Speaking of shopping, if you like to shop in one place to save on shipping, you really need to go visit ABC Toys and Crafts at www.abctoysandcrafts.net. They have such a wonderful selection of stamps, embellishments, paper and adhesives. And, now until July 18th, they are having a sale, everything is 15% off! Plus, orders over $70.00 receive free shipping!!!! Can't beat that!!! So, go over to the huge July blowout sale and get some shopping done.....all in one place!

Have a great day!!!
Happy Stamping!!!
