Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Jolly July

Welcome to the GSF Blog Hop!

Our theme for this month is Jolly July. We could choose between a project related to the month of July or Christmas in July. I am going with Christmas in July. Being a crafter of one kind or another for most of my adult life. I really do start crafting for Christmas in July. One of the new Online Exclusive products is this adorable Tractor & Co Bundle. With stamps and dies to celebrate several occasions it was just too cute to pass up. I took my inspiration for this card from one of the photo examples shown online for this bundle. 

It reminds me of the Christmas tree farms when it is time to cut the trees for the tree lot sales locations.

I die cut all of the card elements in cardstock. Shaded the die cuts with my Stampin' Blends Markers. The card front is Basic White Cardstock. I used a Mini Blending Brush and Cloud Cover Ink to create the snowy sky. I flicked water drops on it and then speckled with Whisper White Craft Ink. I also speckled the trees. Once everything was adhered to the card front I added a few of the White Shimmer Star Foam Stickers. They are so cute. The card from mat is Real Red Cardstock and the card base is Basic White Thick Cardstock. 

I hope you enjoyed my 1st Christmas card of the 2025 holiday season. Now I will sed you over to my friend Kimberley's blog to see what July inspiration she has for you today.
