Christmas in July

I'm not really in a Christmas mood.   My birthday is in July so I'm more in a birthday mood but when three challenges used that as their theme this week, I decided I'd better get in the mood.  I did make a card but because of my moodiness (lol) I'm not crazy about it.


The print paper is from the Christmas Ornament stack from The Paper Studio.  The snowman is from the Creative Memories 'Tis the Season cartridge.  The sentiment is a stamp from My Craft Spot.  I did use my Xyron and glitter for the face.  Thanks to the tip from Julie at Cricut Chirp, I didn't cut up my fingers this time.  She recommended using my Cuttlebug to press the glitter into the sticky side.  Great idea!  Thanks for sharing, Julie.

I'm not going to bore you with all the changes and wrangling I did with the card to get it to this finished product.  It's done and I'm entering it into the following challenges:  Thankful Thursday, Die Cuttin' Divas and Exploring Cricut.
