Christmas in July


It is really hard for me to dust off the Christmas stamps and paper to create when it's steamy outside! I don't know why...I'm just weird I guess! This cute little couple are a card I made for the challenge at Magnolialicious Highlites blog { link }. I used a different Tilda than the one smooching Edwin back just for kicks. I think her giggling expression is adorable with his smooch! I made the background trees from an old CTMH set, Christmas Tree. I stamped them in white craft ink (SU) and used white slick Tulip squirt paint to add the snow. The glitter is chunky white (SU) and DecoArt's Glamor Dust (love how fine this stuff is!). I was thrilled with how the trees turned out! The little bench they are sitting on is by Flower Soft, Quiet Corner Bench. Hope you enjoy a little cheer this hot summer day!
