Christmas in July - My Craft Spot

Hi Everyone!

Well, it's been a super busy week and I just haven't been in my craft room at all. :( It looks like next week will be the same. I work 4 days next week (12 hour days) But after that it will be back to normal.  Wish I could spend all the extra money on my little hobby but we need to purchase a new fence for the backyard , ours is falling down and feels like paper instead of wood. Oh well on to the challenge.  My Craft Spot is having a Christmas in July challenge.  My little card was actually something I used to decorate plain kraft boxes.  I placed this little card in the middle of the box and made the card on top of the red scallop frame open so I could write a little christmas message inside.  Great alternative if you can't find the perfect bow! Hope you enjoy!

Card - About 4"
Cartridges- Storybook & Create a Critter
Paper - DCWV, Poptone
Glitter Glue - Studio G
Twine - Stampin Up
White Gel Pen
