Hi everyone!
Welcome to my blog and the Christmas In July Card Blog Hop!
So many times have I procrastinated in making my Christmas cards that I've learned over the last two years to start early.
It's so hard to think about Christmas when most of the country is in a heat wave lol.
So the hop today will be showcasing Christmas cards in hopes to get that inspiration mojo going for you to get a head start.
Here is the awesome lineup...
Angela - http://creativecraftin.blogspot.com
Amanda - http://a-prata-design.blogspot.com
Miranda www.nanasscrapspot.com
An'Jenic http://anjenicgibson.blogspot.com/
So most of you know me by now (yes you know me my other blog is The Glamorous Side Of Scrapping) and know that I love clean and simple cards. For Christmas it's no surprise. I always rely heavily on my cutting machine when mass producing cards for the holiday.
The card that I'm showing today is a part of a clean and simple Christmas card set that will be going to my co worker. Already started on some set orders :)
Recipe:
Papers are from my stash/scraps
Scrappy Moms Winter Wishes stamp set
White gel pen
VersaFine in Onyx Black
So I have some blog candy....
Trendy Twine is my fabulous sponsor today. The prize is the Candy Cane Mini Pack.

Yes indeed, your card is simple yet very clean. The details are very particular and the colors that you chose were really good.

Simple lovely card. It doesn't matter about the cost, it's about the means of expression.
