Hello, and welcome to another post with a “Christmas in July” card! That is the theme for several challenges going on right now, so I am trying to build up my stash a little bit before December rolls around.
The QUICK and SIMPLE details: The background was cut from part of a cover die (not sure where it came from) to fit in a smaller white frame. The poinsettia and leaves are from a set made by Honey Bee Stamps, with the edges inked in pink and green. The only other thing I added to this card was a sentiment from My Favorite Things, I wanted to keep it looking clean and simple!
