Christmas in July

Hi, good morning and welcome to another new week and another new challenge at Stamp Fairy! This week the theme is Christmas Cards but with a little twist.. yes because we want to see an Easel Card as well! It's been some time since I did an easel card, so I had so much fun making this card. .. ..

Quite a simple card really, not much stuff on it, but then the papers were so bright that I thought it just was right as it was! 


The digi that I used is from the Santa's World set, coloured with my promarkers, papers from my stash, and today I am using something new again. It is the tag where I did the sentiment. That was a freebie stamp in the Simply Homemade magazine, and I still hadn't used it! mmmm I think I'm going to be using quite often, I like it :) 

Here are now some previews of new releases at Stamp Fairy, Lenny Back to School and Lionel
   
which are on sale at the moment.. as are all digis at Stamp Fairy ... till next weekend. 
So if you were thinking of getting any, now is the right time !!

I am entering my card in these challenges today:
- I Love Promarkers 75 - CHRISTMAS IN JULY
- Delightful Sketches - CHRISTMAS IN JULY
- Lothian Crafts July - DIE CUTTING


Thank you for looking today.

Hugs

    Me again, Dora! Re the clip on my card today - I use glue dots and it seems to stay in place! I think using glossy accents would also work well!
