Christmas in July!


Hi friends!
Believe it or not, this is the second post in a row with a card just for fun for challenges! I love summer vacation!!! :) I used a wonderful poinsettia stamp and die set by Waffle Flower for the focal point of the card (also the sentiment comes from the same set) and then used a Catherine Pooler cover plate for the fun snowflake background -it has a retro feel, right? This WF poinsettia set is one of my best purchases from last year, a definite favorite in my stash. I colored the poinsettia with Copics and added some detail with gel pens and Wink of Stella. This card pleased my eye without any embellies or paint splatters so I just left those out this time! :) 

This card is for:

Waffle Flower Christmas in July Challenge: Classic Christmas Colors


Double Trouble Challenge: Christmas in July (no twist of bow for me!)

Christmas Craft Creations: Anything Goes



I hope you liked my card and thank you for popping by!

    Beautiful card, Nonnie! Your coloring of the poinsettia flower is just GORGEOUS! I was unfamiliar with Catherine Pooler cover plates, but your background you created with the die is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your card and talents with us at Double Trouble for our "Christmas in July" challenge!!! -Donna
