Happy Holidays

 Hi everyone and happy Monday!

I hope your weekend was fun and crafty!

Today I am popping in to share a simple Christmas card that I created with a couple of different challenges in mind. I know, I know, it's only June but I love getting a jump start on some of the holiday crafting. It just makes my life a little less hectic come December. 

Here is a look at my card...

I love these non traditional colors!

I started by creating an A2 card using some Crumb Cake cardstock from SU!. I layered a piece of patterned paper on top and added the strip of coordinating papers on top. I die cut a snowflake from some white glitter cardstock and placed that on top, adding a button and bow to the center. I used a pre- printed sentiment strip, flagging the end, and popped that up with foam tape. I added some little drops of "snow" by using the scrap glitter paper from the snowflake and a regular paper hole punch to create some dots. 

While I had everything out on my desk, I made two of the same card.

The button/bow combo makes it a little bulkier than I like for mailing but I will just make sure these go to some local friends so they can get hand delivered.

I would like to play along with the following challenges:

--The Paper Funday Challenges: June 2026: #88 AG, optional Polka Dots/Stripes--

--Peace On Earth Christmas Challenge: #113 AG Christmas--
