Hi everyone, it's Cindy here with my second blog post for the month.... I'm excited to share with you a couple of Christmas cards I created for Christmas in July...


To create this card I began by die cutting  the Conservatory die and the Goodwill Tree from the Christmas Emporium Collection ... I then backed the die cuts with cardstock....

Next I cut down the Conservatory die cut as shown...


then it was just putting it all together...

 

 I applied the background die cut directly to the card front and used some foam tape to mount up the tree die cut over some gauze... and to finish I tied some ribbon binding in a big bow, and added some touches of bling...


 A close up of the Silver Glitzen Glamour added to the tree and the 2mm gemstones added to the background die cut... 
 Next I created a super quick flip card...


The flip card base I cut from red cardstock and again used the Christmas Emporium Papers to decorate...


I added some Red Glitzen Glamour to the exposed area of red cardstock,  just to create some random texture...


 after I had done this I decided that I didn't like the paper I had chosen for the inside of the card and replaced it with a stronger colour...


I pulled the center off one of the white roses and added it to the front... and also added a little silver Glitzin' Glamour Glitter Glue to it make it shimmer...
I used the smallest die from the Vintage Signs set to create my message inside... and placed it so that the rounded top would look like a tab when the card was closed...
