A Christmas in July card featuring a trio of cute little polar bears in windows w/ a wreath surrounded greeting. The images w/ matching dies are perfect to make a bunch of cards quickly.

We are visiting Hester & Cook for the Inspiration Challenge (IC918), & I found THIS cute gift card for my inspiration.

To make my polar bear card, I die cut the top panel w/ a 3 window cover die then used a slimline quilted cover to add the pattern. Since it’s a slimline, I had to do it once, then align the dots on the other half & run it thru again. The polar bears were all colored & die cut w/ their matching dies. The wreath was die cut w/ large circle die & the little poinsettia added on top.

I did used a clear glaze pen on the berries but it’s hard to see. The wreath circle was popped up just bit.

Here are the Copics I used:

Red Poinsettia

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC890), we’re visiting the Puzzle Shop & their Pinterest Board. I chose THIS puzzle for my inspiration.

On my poinsettia card, I used a big, build a poinsettia set & stamped, colored & die cut 2 of them. One of them I cut apart, & the other full poinsettia, I used a craft knife to cut around a few petals, lift them up & insert the cut apart leaves underneath. A few were tucked under the big poinsettia. It’s attached to a white layer where I stamped the greeting, then added a green scallop edge frame on top before adding the poinsettia.

The designer paper is a beautiful holly print in a new Rubbernecker paper pad.

These are the Copics I used: (note: on the full set, there are holly leaves which is where I used the greens. I didn’t add them to the card so only the reds were used.)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Merry Wreath

Posted on December 2, 2022 11:00 PM by Julie Comment

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC887) this week & we’re visiting Paper Heart Design & their Pinterest Boards where I was inspired by THIS color palette.

For my mini slimline card, I die cut a piece of the winter paper w/ a stitched mini slimline die & added a narrow red layer behind it. The wreath was built using die cuts from part of a wreath set, mistletoe, branches & poinsettias. Since it looked a little busy w/ the paper showing thru the wreath center, so I put back the white center from the wreath ring. The Merry w/ shadow was popped up a bit & I used a paper crimper to crimp the red wreath hanger. Gold stickles was added on the wreath & poinsettias.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
