I know you had to read that title twice and yes I am posting a Christmas Card in July! I usually start making my cards early, but not usually this early.
My card is for the challenge over at CCEE and they are having a holiday card sketch challenge this week.
I got the inspiration for my card from the following sketch and once I saw it I knew that I wanted to do some kind of a wreath and I also knew that I wanted to do some kind of an embossing folder.
I had not used this punch yet and once I got going making the little wreath it was quite fun, the hard part was gluing them all down and then adding the fiskar rain dots.
So now I have one card down and 99 more to go. Hope you will join me this week in this fun challenge.
Enjoy!
