Marisol Walking in a Winter Wonderland - Christmas in July

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink.  I cannot believe we are almost at the end of July, and so this is my last Christmas in July project that I have to share - of course it just had to be a doll tag!

The doll for this project is 'Marisol' (I think she is my favorite!)  I altered her clothes a little so that she would be suitably attired for walking in a Winter Wonderland.  I used Bo-Bunny again background and paper pieced clothes.  The snowflakes are from Impression Obsession dies.  I added some stickles and puffy paint for the snow and trim for her boots and hat.  The photos don't show it terribly will but in sparkles quite nicely.

I hope you have enjoyed all the projects this month - I wonder what next month will hold?  Until then.

MONOTONE TREE

Another fabulous card from De Anna!!

 I cut two trees and glued them together to give some dimension.  Then using some of my favorite embossing folders I created layers for the background, snow and frame.  A Wink of Stella pen is perfect to highlight the snow and snowflakes. White stickles show off the ornaments on the tree. I hope you have fun giving mono-tone a try!

A Warm Cup of Christmas - Christmas in July

Hi Everyone

Michelle from Lady of Leisure Ink, as always Terri thanks for having me.  For my third Christmas in July project I decided to play with a cup die from Memory Box.

I inked the edges of the cups, added some puffy paint for marshmallows and then added the swirls (dies from Impression Obsession) for the steam - can you just taste the cocoa?  The sentiment is a word die from Cheery Lynn.  The background paper is from Bo-Bunny.  Here are a couple of close-ups.

I also made a second project this week - a little gift bag (made with the We R Memory Keepers gift bag punch board.)  Although I cut the cup with my Silhouette Cameo, you could just as easily use the same Memory Box die for this.

I used that same Impression Obsession die for the steam.  Here is a look from the side so that you can see the dimension.

This would make a cute little gift for someone filled with a pack of cocoa and mini marshmallows don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by today.  See you next time.

Snowboarding Adam - Christmas in July

Hi Everyone

Michelle here again from Lady of Leisure Ink, with my second project for Christmas in July.  This week I have used one of the newest Julie Nutting dolls. her guy doll 'Adam'.

How cool is he in his ski mask and hat, toting a snowboard?  The background paper is from Bo-Bunny, I just loved all the colours in this.  This is a section cut from the back of a 12 x 12 sheet, I quite often find that I may not be able to use sections like this on a scrap booking layout, but they are perfect for a card.

Here are a couple of close-ups.

Thanks for stopping by to check out today's project, see you next week!

A Trio of Trees - Christmas in July

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink, welcome to my first 'Christmas in July' post.  I had so much fun reaching for the Christmas papers and dies for these projects - kept me nice and cool in my craft room when my AC quit working!!!!

Here are my first projects.

For this card I used the tree die from Memory Box, I really love the different ways you can use this die.  I mounted 3 trees on to acetate and then 'blinged' them up a little.

I then took the cut out tree and used it as a stencil and made this simple tag.

I really love how versatile this die is - we would love to see the different ways you come up with using this (or any of your dies/crafting supplies.)

As always Terri - thanks for having me, and see you all next week.

ORNAMENT CARD

Hi,

It is an honor to be asked to create some designs for Terri.  Today I used the Ornaments die from Penny Black.  Taking double sided paper from the Bo Bunny line called Midnight Frost, I cut and layered the paper.  Then using the die, I cut ornament windows.  Pop dots elevate the layer before adding some charms to the center of the ornament from 7gypsies.  Terri had some sheer white polka dot ribbon that I colored with an alcohol marker to coordinate with the Bo Bunny Paper. The end result is a fun card to send to a special person during the Holidays.
