On the first day of Christmas in July...

my true love sent to me, a heat & stick glittered Christmas Tree! Now, I hope that that does not keep playing around in your mind the way it has been in mine! Very annoying! I have made this card for my Bling Christmas workshop this week. I am sorry to say, that it does not look blingy at all, but in real life, this baby shines.
I stamped the tree in versamark, then handsome hunter ink, then applied heat & stick powder, heater her up, added some diamonds then set with the heat gun. I tore some edges and distressed everything in site. Using the handsome hunter & bravo burgundy has given this card a very rustic feel. It is quite lovely IRL (so I keep saying)! Anyway, happy Christmas in July! Do try not to over indulge! lol!

Beautiful Card Leonie - and everything else that you have been during during June LOL

Seeing this Christmas card makes me wonder if I should start my Chrissy cards now to get them done in time LOL
