Xmas in July

Hi there friends,

I made a gift card holder for a Christmas In July Sassy Design Studio Challenge. It will also fit some other challenges this week. I love the colors of these K&Co papers I bought last Christmas. They are 4 x6" mat papers that work pretty well for card making because of the small scale prints.

The tag sticking out of the top of the cup shaped holder will hold a gift card. I'll attach it to the tag with some glue dots. The colors are non-traditional but my daughter thought they went well with the modern SSD image and I agree. It was fun to make this even though I dread the holiday! LOL!

Hugs, Kim

Sassy.Movie.Challenge

Hi all, I know, I know, LOL! Your thinking where in the heck did I come up with this movie as an inspiration!!!! Some of you are too young to remember Elvis movies but I loved them as a kid. The Sassy Studio Design image, Lollipop girl, reminded me of when people would go to a big fair or amusement park and walk around with one of these giant lollipops! Also I got the idea to add penants and that reminded me of a fair. It's a stretch, I know! I only have about 5 SSD images to work with! Hope you like it.

Mojo#124.Just.for.you.kitty

I'm on a card making roll this week. I love this sketch and this digital kitty stamp. Problem is, I don't know where I got it so if anyone recognizes it, please tell me. I think it was free but not sure. My coloring came out good on this card. I'm getting the hang of the light source more and more. I left the inside blank so I can decide later if it will be a birthday card or some other occasion.

Products used:
Paper-Basic Grey,Green at heart 6x6
Bazzil CS
Ribbon-Michaels
Pearls-Kiesercraft
