Season's Greetings

All these "Christmas in July" challenges are really giving my Christmas card box a welcome boost!


I made this card using the Tonic Studios "Winter Wonderland" pad - I've had it for several years now and must have made dozens of cards with it, yet it's still going strong. It started out with 42 8"x8" patterned papers and 24 sentiments, and I totted up that there are still 19 uncut sheets and 16 sentiments left, plus a generous handful of snippets. And the small patterns mean that even the tiniest snippet can be useful. The designs are timeless and the colour scheme makes it great for masculine cards.

I am sharing this with

Beautiful Christmas card! A very clever way to use all these little pieces of paper that are piling up and that we don't want to throw away! Thank you so much for playing along at 52CCT.
