DO Stamping with the Stars #DOswts391 Christmas in July


MerrChristmaiJuly!!!

It's that time again for our 2nd monthly Inspiration Hop, and our inspiration for this challenge has all to do with the wonderful holiday that is only about 5 MONTHS AWAY!!  Who has been watching the Hallmark Christmas in July movies?  Come on, admit it!!! Here is my Christmas in July Inspiration:


I just love how Stampin' Up! color collections coordinate so well. And I especially love the 2021-2023 Soft Succulent In Color.  The Satin Shimmer Ribbon and the Texture Chic Designer Series Paper just looks so gorgeous together. The white mat just makes this card pop!

The Season of Chic bundle dies were used to cut the snowflakes in silver foil, vellum and Pool Party cardstock.  One of the snowflakes was embossed using silver embossing powder.  The center large iridescent foil snowflake is from the July-December mini-catalog called Wonderful Snowflakes.  There are 24 snowflakes in the package.  Of course, there must be bling!  I used Rhinestone Basic Jewels and just scattered them over the card.


For the sentiment tag I used this cool die from the Seasonal Label dies.  It comes with these little dies that can create the slots on the sides for the ribbon. I really like how this looks.  What do you think?  

The sentiments on the outside and inside are from the Chrismas to Remember stamp set that coordinates with the label dies.


I always like to finish the inside of the cards.  I know this picture doesn't really show it as well, but the sentiment and the snowflake have been embossed using the silver embossing powder.
