Christmas in July – Carols of Christmas Blog Hop

Carols of Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to our Christmas In July
Carols of Christmas Blog Hop!
 
Merry Christmas!
 
 
I'm SUper excited to be a part of this fun Blog Hop and I cannot wait to see what everyone has created using the brand new Carols of Christmas Bundle which will be available for  you on 8/1/17.
 
 
It's a Sneak Peek at whats coming with the release of the new Holiday Catalog on 9/1/17.  I had a peek at the new products coming for the holidays and let me tell you this suite, Carols of Christmas and the coordinating dies, Card Front Builder Thinlits are going to be a must on your list for sure!
 
 
So for my project share today, I was focusing more on a winter theme...rather than Christmas.
Sometimes our lives are so busy that we cannot get everything done on our busy holiday schedules, so this is a card that can be sent anytime...not just for Christmas.....even if you enjoy celebrating Christmas in July...when the temperature soars into the 90's (like it has been here in PA)....this will be a card you can send to remind those loved ones in your life that the snow is coming....so enjoy the warm temperatures...and stay indoors and stamp!  :)
 
 
I focused today on the dies...along with a few embellishments...it's a rather simple card...just a bit of die cutting with the Big Shot!
 
 
This card has a 3-D look to it...I used our Stampin' Dimensionals behind the "snow" as well as the trees".  I used the Card Front Builder Thinlit Dies Item # 144674 to create my scene.

 
Most of the time deer do not travel alone..so I chose three deer for my card...

 
I also added dimension by using our new Embossing Paste to give the look of snow drifts..
I then used my Wink of Stella over the entire card front tapping the brush tip over the card to add that added sparkle (which unfortunately does not show up well in a photo) but in person...amazing!
