This is an exciting day for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators, because we get to see the holiday catalog for the first time!  One of the sets in the new catalog, Winterly Tree Tops, was available last month, so I’m sharing a “Christmas in July” card today. If you like birds, you’ll love this set, and I began by fussy cutting one of the birds from the Nests Of Winter Designer Paper. Then, I glued Noel (that’s her name) to a circle of Basic White Cardstock, cut with a Spotlight On Nature Die, 2 1/4″.

BREAKING NEWS: Due to worldwide internet issues, Stamping Up! is extending FREE SHIPPING through today, July 24th. It will end at midnight, and is good with a minimum $75.00 order.

Christmas in July

Noel wanted to be the main focus, and said I should layer her on top of two more Spotlight On Nature Circles, Basic White Cardstock, 3 1/4″, and Garden Green Cardstock, 3 3/4″.

Next, Noel wanted to decorate the circles with garland, which she said was in her stamp set, Winterly Tree Tops. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and colored it with Stampin’ Blends in five colors: Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, and Shaded Spruce. It was easy to cut with its Winterly Tree Tops Die, and I glued it to the white 3 1/4″ circle.

For the background, Noel chose Basic White Cardstock, embossed with the Eyelet Embossing Folder, 4″ X 5 14″. I told her it wasn’t a good choice, because it was on the “low inventory” list, but she insisted. She said people should hurry to order it, because it was perfect with the edge of her circles. I agreed, and hope the stock will be replenished, if it runs out. I glued the embossed layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Noel wanted to put the sentiment on a small, Spotlight On Nature circle, and found “to you and yours” in the Filled With Cheer Stamp Set. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink on the 1″ circle, and attached it with a Dimensional.

Noel was very happy to be featured on my first Christmas card in 2024, and wanted to enter the TGIF challenge. So, we did.
