Christmas In July Celebration!!






Hi Everybody!
Welcome to Day # 5 Of Christmas In July Celebration!! The theme for today's projects is "Handmade Gifts". Please visit Giselle's Blog to see all the wonderful projects being showcased throughout the day.



One thing I hear my mom say a lot is "Oh, I need a card!". If I'm not around, she has to *GASP* BUY a card! That kills me! So in order to "never" have her do that again, I will be giving her this notecard box set. It has cards for all occasions: Thanks, Halloween, Christmas, and birthday! And I even included a pen with matching ribbon since there never seems to be one when you need it! Here are the details on making this set:



*Martha Stewart scoreboard for box and lid (measurements are on inside of scoreboard lid)
*LID = score a 12" x 12" paper @ 3" + 1/8" and 9 1/8" + 1/8"
*BOTTOM = score a 12" x 12" paper @ 3" and 9"
*rosette = found on
Tammy Skinner's blog HERE
*Pink By Design sentiment = Scripted Year set
*Peachy Keen snowman stamp
*Stickles = gold, red, green
*Stampin' Up! ribbon
*make cards for any occasion






This was my VERY FIRST rosette!  I was happy to find out how totally easy they are to make, and will now be probably making them by the millions!!








This box fit these 11 cards easily, and could fit envelops and a few more cards with no problem!



There you go, I hope you liked my gift idea and will make it this holiday season!  And make sure to check Giselle's Blog every day this week for new themed projects everyday :oD

Christmas In July Celebration



Hi Everybody!
Welcome to Day # 3 Of Christmas In July Celebration!!  The theme for today's projects is "Home Decor".  Please visit Giselle's Blog to see all the wonderful projects being showcased throughout the day. 

I've been meaning to make this project ever since this cartridge came out, and I finally did it! This image is SO Christmas to me, and will be above a shelf on my wall for the holidays. The picture doesn't do it justice. It's so sparkly, and with some faux snow along the shelf underneath and some little houses, this image will totally complete the scene :) Here are the details:
*Christmas solutions cartridge
*12" x 24" black paper
*santa sleigh image cut @ 11"
*moon cut as big as would fit on 12" x 12" paper
*Stickles in LOTS of colors!





*Had to have a Rudolph reindeer!!



It takes a little time adding the detail with the Stickles, but so worth it! I hope you all will give this a try for your holiday decor :oD  And make sure to check Giselle's Blog every day this week for new themed projects everyday!  Tomorrow is: STAY ON TASK AND ORGANIZED, VISIT FOR PLANNERS AND SHOPPING LISTS IDEAS.  And prizes everyday!!!  TFL :oD
