Christmas in July

Seeing so many Christmas themed challenges around at the moment, I was really inspired to play along and so I made a Christmas Card using one of last month's Crafty Sentiment's Billy and Primrose Christmas 2011  stamps release... Not that I am feeling the Christmas spirit with the hot weather over here, but it's never too early to start and anyway I really wanted to use these adorable stamps as I still hadn't used them yet being so busy last month!! 

The image that I used is Christmas Song, coloured it with my promarkers, background paper is recycled from an old Christmas Card and the stars border punch is MS. 

Not sure from where I got bells embellishment from as had them for so long and the tree, I did that with a freebie gift from one of the magazines I buy. The sentiment is a peel-off.

I am entering my card in these challenges today.
