Christmas in August

Woohoo!  What better way to celebrate the return of the good weather then with a Christmas card!!  Having just received my new stash from Stampin’ Up it was the first thing I thought of when checking the Less is More challenge this morning.  This week we need to use the colours of our country’s flag…so for me that’s red and white.
Welcome Christmas
I’ve used an image from Welcome Christmas and a sentiment from Contempo Christmas in Poppy Red.  I’ve matted and layered the image using nestabilities and trimmed the card with 3 different ribbons from my stash….and I think the sentiment says it all really.
Hope you like it Smile.
I’m planning to do a Christmas class towards the end of August.  I WILL get round to sorting this….honest!!!  But this week I’ll be out and about with the kids.  Lots of day trips planned and not much time for crafting ….boooo!!!
Enjoy your week….
