Christmas in July - Colour Challenge


We have two things happening today.

 First is a new Friday Freebie called Knobby Knees Christmas - sack.

Now the second is a Colour Challenge using the above colours.  Of course, you don't have to use Knobby Knees, any of our Christmas images will do.  Here is my inspiration.



Today is the last day of our Christmas in July celebrations.  I hope you have enjoyed our week and get your entries in before the deadline.

Bugaboo Stamps Christmas in July Photo Challenge




For Thursday's OBG Photo Challenge I have looked at the photo and the first thing I saw was Santa and his ever so long list.



For this fun Christmas card I have used Santa Clause Peeker and Blank Dear Santa Scroll.  Add a home-made sentiment and washi tape and there you have it.  There is some foam tape behind some of the many Dear Santa letters.


See you over at Catch the Bug Challenges for Christmas in July.

So excited about Christmas in July at Bugaboo Stamps

I am so excited about our 2020 Christmas in July, I forgot which day I made this card for.  Not sure it is funny because I made the sentiment myself, but I have decided to use it for Make Me Laugh or as we usually call it - Humour Me Wednesday.

I used -

Scene it - Santa and Friends



Santa is talking to Mrs Clause on the two-way, telling her he is on his way to deliver the presents to all the good children.

See you tomorrow for another Christmas in July day.

Tuesday is Bingo Challenge and a Flash Freebie

It's Christmas in July Tuesday at Bugaboo Stamps and we have a Bingo Challenge as well as a flash freebie.

I have used the flash freebie to create some inspiration for the Bingo Challenge. I used the line with brads or pearls, sentiment and die cut.



Here is my inspiration:


See you tomorrow at the Christmas in July celebrations.

Christmas in July ABAC Challenge

Monday over at Bugaboo Stamps Catch the Bug Challenge Blog is always Anything but a Card inspiration, so that is your challenge for this Monday.


I decided to make some gift tags.  I have used for my image "Rudolph Tag" because I am halfway there for tags.  I have played with some watercolour paints, pencils, Posca markers and gel pens.


To finish the tags, I put a hole in them and used some scraps of ribbon, some of which may have even come from those ribbon tags you get on the shoulders of clothes, but don't tell anyone.


Hope you like my inspiration and continue to follow the Christmas in July celebrations over on our blog.

Christmas in July - Bugaboo Stamps

Our Saturday Theme Challenge during Christmas in July involves creating this theme in your project.


When I looked at this picture, I saw Santa and his elves helping him get toys ready to deliver.  Immediately I thought of Santa Clause Peeker and the Bugaboo elves.  I chose Brat Boy Elf Sitter and this is what I came up with.




I made a shelf for Brat Boy Elf to sit on by folding a piece of patterned paper and foam tape.

See you tomorrow with inspiration for the next Bugaboo Stamps Christmas in July Challenge.

Oldie but Goodie Thursday

At Bugaboo Stamps Catch the Bug Challenge Blog we like to showcase an Oldie but Goodie.

I have made this sympathy card for the family of one of our DT members who passed suddenly.  May Julie T. rest in peace and craft on in heaven.


I have used Beautiful Blocks -Thoughts and Prayers coloured with Copics.

SheepSki Designs July 2020 Blog Challenge

We have just hit July and you know what that means - two things.

The first is a  "Christmas in July" theme over at our Blog Challenge and

the second, we are on the downhill slide to Christmas 2020.

I got a bit carried away this month and have three creations for your inspiration.

The first is a December divider for a Classic Happy Planner.  I have used Rudolph's Little Helper

The second is a gift card featuring Christmas Bunny


The third is a gift tag featuring Penguin Pals
