Welcome to the Christmas In July Paper Wings Blog Hop - I had a great time playing with some Christmas stamps in traditional and not so traditional cards. It was a great break from the heat! Hope you like them :)
Quick, Fast and Easy card using the Jingle Jolly Set.
HedgeHog Happiness - is a Christmas Tree! :) Cut a second tree and layered it over the first stamped image and flared the edges outward to give it some dimension. Some large eyelets for the wheels and we are on our way to a fun filled Holiday season!
Another Jingle Jolly - LOVE this little reindeer and used some scraps of Juliette SWIC to create a non-traditional colored card.
Another non-traditional card using Emma SWIC and a stamp from Coco and Mack. The present is cut out and popped up and also has some Paper Glaze on it for shine :)
One of my favorites! Another non-traditional card using Catelynn papers and Coco and Mack. Colored with PrismaColor pencils and OMS. A few tiny brown pearls and even one on the present.
Miss Lucy in kind of a nontraditional color scheme. Emma SWIC and PrismaColor Pencils with OMS. So much fun to color!
Another Lucy card - quick and easy with Background Soup for the green dots. Fun and no extra postage!
One more nontraditional card - lots of layers and lots of fun. Again Miss Lucy all in pink. Some Uptown Girl papers, some stickles (hard to see the sparkle in the picture) and some pink pearls from the pink gem packs in the catalog.
