The last 3 years, I have made Christmas cards throughout the year, but by this New Year I felt I needed a break and would be fresher for my Christmas projects if I left them till later in the year, so this is it, the start of Christmas 2013 with the help of Bugaboo.
The challenge today was to take inspiration from a sunbathing Santa picture. I went along with Santa & used an AKV Santa - Snow image I won last year in the Christmas in July event by completing the blog hop.
So, my card is actually a gift wallet - a simple design, but I have to say a very popular one and one that sells very well at craft fairs when people want to gift money or gift cards.
Challenges;
Bugaboo Christmas in July - Day 1 - Inspiration from Santa picture.
CAS on Sunday - Christmas in July
Crafty Sentiments - Christmas in July
