Christmas In July Red & Green Theme!

Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. It’s Christmas in July this week for our blog hop! It’s never too early to start making Christmas cards so you won’t be stressed by the time December arrives.

I used a new bundle called Jolly Holly and I just love the large holly leaves die. The die partially cuts the holly leaves so you can bend them forward like you see in these photos:
