First up is Sam at Whispers Cards
Sam has made this fabulous fancy fold card...with lovely Old World looking Santa images. I am itching to try this fold now. The Santa charm is such a wonderful embellishment here. The reds, greens and golds suit these Santa's!
Jenny at Cardsarus has made this elegant fancy folded round easel card. Loving the pop of the white against the blue and all the fabulous dies here.
You can pop over to Sam and Jenny's blogs by just clicking on their blog names where I have embedded a hyperlink straight to them!
My card has a decoupage image. My NBUS item is the plaid background paper. It is from a 6x6 Basic Grey, Jovail paper pad I bought at the Papercraft garage sale. Think I paid $2.00 for the unopened pad. It has lots of lovely design papers.
The trees are a Sue Wilson die. There are a lot of sizes of tree dies in this set. One evening, I sat and used up a lot of green coloured snippets cutting out a lot of these trees in various sizes. I inked them up with Ingvild Bolme chalk inks and am really happy with the results..
The Merry Christmas die is Elizabeth Crafts. I cut it from heavyweight red Bazzill card...the same red card I used for the scalloped mat.
The snowflakes are another NBUS item. They are Memory Box Twilight Snowflakes. A light touch of Wink Of Stella finished off this card with a little Christmas sparkle!
Our prize this month is a choice of this Stampendous Snowy Postcard cling stamp,
or this Memory Box Reindeer Circle die.

Oooo i so love Bears and am loving the layout and colours too, it's an absolute pleasure to be part of a super challenge, Luv Sam x
Hello there, my first time taking part. I thought I'd take the plunge as I've seen your challenge mentioned on Di's (Pixies Playground) a lot :) Some lovely inspiration and I'll try my best to look and comment on as many as I possibly can x
great DT cards thanks for the encouragement to prepare for Christmas early.
What a fun challenge!
Managed to pop in again despite it being Summer holidays
This is a fun challenge, so happy to participate and hope to see you for August too.
Oh no! I accidentally entered the wrong link for my card and had to do it over again, with the correct one this time. Please delete the first link as it isn't even a card link. My head is just not on straight tonight I guess. Thank you so much, and thank you for sharing these lovely cards.
Love your challenge and hope to enter in August. Great cards by the design team too.
Thank you for your great challenge and amazing inspirations.
hugs, treebug
Hi Maureen, I think I may have just earned the distinction of being the very last to enter your challenge this month. I'll try to do better for August. The showcased cards are very inspiring. As I already have both the stamp and the die, please count me out for the draw. Hugs, Elizabeth xx
