Hi Crafty Friends!

Today starts a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week theme is "Christmas in July" and our sponsor is SheepSki Designs.

I got to play with this cute image called "Ready for Christmas - image no 163" and I coloured it with Promakers. I created a CAS card because the image has to be the focus on the card and that's why I used gold cardboard from a chocolate letter package. I always keep that in my stash. I cut out the image, card and gold mat with stitched square dies. The little ornament is cut out with a circle die from the same gold card as the mat.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!
