Christmas in..August?

Hi there! I am back from CHA...had an absolute blast seeing friends and all the cool product that will be flooding the stores in the next few months. I am here in PA for a few more days but am heading home on Thursday.
I will be sure to post some pictures as soon as I get home and download them. (There are lots on facebook already!)

I cannot wait to play with some of my new purchases from the Supershow...but for now--here is a little Christmas in July---oopsie..I mean August (where does the time go?). I love these "unconventional" colors for Christmas cards: Materials used:
Designer paper-Good Cheer: Gingerbread (October Afternoon), Adhesive backed fabric paper-Spring:Tickled Pink (Dear Lizzy/American Crafts); Cardstock-vanilla-(Gina K Designs); buttons-(Papertrey); corner rounder punch; frayed burlap distress ink (Ranger); die-Snowflake Wonder (Spellbinders); Rub-on-Trade Marks, Jack (American Crafts); Ribbon-Christmas (American Crafts); Thicker-roller rink (American Crafts).


Thanks for stopping by!

Never too early (or late) to start on Christmas cards! This one is a beauty! I love those "unconventional" Christmas colors too. Hope your vacation was relaxing and it isn't too difficult to get back into routine again. Have a great week and a safe trip!

Carolyn, it was SO good to see you again at CHA. I just wish I would have been there for THE CAKE experience!
Your card looks gorgeous! I love that paper and bought about 10 sheets.
Have a wonderful day!
