Christmas in July - Elizabeth Craft Designs Style

I usually send out >100 cards at Christmas-time, but I may not make it this year.  Going to try!  This is one I made with products from Elizabeth Craft Designs!  It's Christmas in July!

This card includes stamped images from the Snowman and Gifts Clear Stamps that were die cut with the coordinating dies.  The "hole" in the card was cut with the NEW Frame It/Stitched Ovals dies.  These are so cool, the die leaves the stitching behind :)  That gorgeous snowflake is from the Ornate Snowflakes dies and is covered with Crystal Clear Silk Microfine Glitter from the Bloom collection. The beautiful paper is from the Christmas Holidays 6x6 set.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Links to the supplies I used are below.

Craftily yours,
