Christmas in July

For my FCCB wedding favour boxes click here.

Hello again,today I am so excited to be hosting the challenge over at BBTB2.

Instead of a specific cricut cut I went with a  theme.

The theme is 'Christmas in July'.

It's a great chance to get a head start on Christmas.

We would like to see your cricut made cards,layouts or 3D projects.

Here is what I came up with....

At Christmas we have our traditional tree full of ornaments lovingly collected over

the years and I have a little tree in my dining room full of papercrafted treats.

These will join them.One for each member of our household.

Here's a close up...

I used clear rock candy distress crackle paint and glossy accents.

All layered up and inked.

Recipe

TBBM2 - crackers cut and scored at 6"

If I had cut at 5.75" I would have got 2 crackers from one 12 x 12 paper!

Will remember that for next time!

Art Philosophy - tree & ornament cut at 2.5"

- holly at 2"

All multi cut and layered,I liked how the holly peeled with the crackle

paint!

I like how these turned out.The cardstock is glazed and I added some

distress ink colour to parts of them.

Just need to add a snap and game.

(We play lots of silly games - who am I? Dare,Forfeit etc!!)

I am also entering this over at Little Scrap pieces - Christmas in July.
