We BEE Stamping Team Blog Hop – Christmas In July

Welcome to the We BEE Stamping Team Blog Hop!!!

I’m excited to come to you the 1st of each month with some fun projects highlighting a variety of topics, techniques, and Stampin’ Up! Specials!

For this month the theme is Christmas in July!

There are so many wonderful stamps and papers available to choose from, so I wanted to start off this season with a simple, yet elegant card!

I’m using the Evergreen Elegance Bundle for this one. The front of the card uses the stamps, while the inside has a nice addition with the punch.

The two new In Colors, Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent are perfect for these trees. It’s an instant winter scene with no special tools required.

Use both colors at full strength and then also after stamping off onto some scrap paper once to get four colors!

I’ve spruced up the trees with some Wink of Stella and then with some Genial Gems just on the large tree.  (see what I did there?)

 

For the inside, I brought in the fun border punch.

Just a side note – that super tiny cute little tree is not actually part of the punch….  That’s the result of using scrap paper and punching it twice, overlapping it to fill in a gap… and it cut a tiny tree! What a happy result!

I hope this gets you in the mood to start working on those Holiday cards… you can never start too soon!
