Hi guys! It's time for a Christmas in July Challenge! Just make a Christmas card using a hand stamped, digital stamped or Cricut cut image, and any colors you'd like! Make any style Christmas card you'd like, and NO, you don't have to use Cardz TV Stamps to enter.

You have until Wednesday, July 13th at 11:30 am EDT to get your card entered in the InLinkz below. Your entries should be new projects...no backlinks please, and you may enter up to 3 times. On Wednesday, July 13th at noon, I'll use random.org to pick a winner for a fun set of Cardz TV Stamps Christmas stamps!

I can't wait to see your Christmas cards! For my Christmas card I used Snow Friends, Elegant Edges, George & Basic Shapes, and Cardz TV Stamps "Merry Everything". Thanks for watching!

    Was wondering when challenges would start back up. There is mention of animal Christmas card and I was wondering if the word 'animal' was there by mistake. Also is there 1 entry limit or 3? 'll ck back later. Have a Bee-utiful day!

    Mary I love the red too and that's what I would have picked. It really makes a world of difference as it adds that extra touch to a darling card. I like the fold too Mary and thanks for the video. pat

    Thanks for the responses Mary. I tried the Pull-Out style and glad I did since it makes for a fun interactive card. I'm not the best at cutting scrapbook paper with my trimmer but when life gives you tears in the paper washi tape can cover that up & that is what I did. Had a storm come thru Central TX here last night so we are cleaning up some huge branches that fell from a tree in our front yard. Glad they fell away from the house and by them falling that is one way to avoid having to pay a tree trimmer company to cut them down. The branches were ones that needed to come down. There is still 1 more branch and I told hubby to not climb tree or do anything foolish to get the branch down. He chuckled and said his insurance was pd up. Yah! Have a Bee-utiful day!

    Hi Mary,
    I love your cards and tutorials. I am making several of these cards for my coworkers for Christmas this year. I ended up putting on snowflakes instead of snowman and they turned out so cute. I was wondering where you get your little gems that you put on the card. I was at Hobby Lobby and Michaels today and didn't see any like that.
    Thank you,
    Roxanne
