Our Christmas in July celebration is just about over, but we have one more inspiration card to share with you! Karin‘s card beautifully spells out joy to wish you a Merry Christmas!


Karin started with a panel of Let It Shine Starry Skies 6×6 paper and a Snow Flurries Backdrop. It frames her lovely, layered greeting of Lacy Heart Stackables, Quinn’s ABCs Lawn Cuts and pretty florals from Magic Iris Birdhouse Add-On. I love how the flowers and vines add just a bit of color to this creamy design. And the woodgrain cardstock that Karin used for the letters adds a unique rustic element.


She found the Merry Christmas sentiment in Winter Skies, white embossing it on a banner from Treat Cart Sentiment Add-On coordinating dies.

Thank you so much for inspiring us today, Karin!

The Christmas in July challenge ends this Sunday, August 4th at 11:59PM ET. We can’t wait to see all the festive entries you will add to the challenge gallery!

Catherine has some beautifully frosty monochromatic Build-A-Snow Globe inspiration for you today!


This beautiful card starts with an ink blended background in icy shades of blue! Then Catherine stenciled the background with Snowy Sky Stencil before layering Snow Flurries Backdrop over the top.


Next, she assembled the Build-A-Snow Globe creating a shaker window. I love how she added the I Scream You Scream “snow” on top!

Inside the snow globe, Catherine assembled a lovely scene with the sweet Winter Birds! And of course, she carried the monochromatic color palette to this little vignette as well! The cute sentiment is found in Snow Globe Scenes.

Thanks for sharing this brilliant design, Catherine! I’m so inspired!
