Christmas in July

Each year in July I make a Christmas Card.  My plan is to make my Christmas Cards early in the year so that when the Holiday Season arrives, I am ready with my cards.  It has never happened. 

 This Christmas in July card is for two different challenges.

RRCB 42

Follow these links to play along.








I have used old Stampin' Up! stamps and new Stampin' Up! Copper Embossing Powder for this card.

The stamps are both from 2009.  The reindeer is called Dasher and the sentiment is from Delightful Decorations.

The embossing folder is current and is called Softly Falling.

The mini copper brads are from Recollections and the copper metallic paper is from a Recollections paper collection called Precious Metals.

    Hello Diane: I've always loved this very elegant deer image, specially adorned with those pretty copper colored brads and heat embossed too.
    Beautiful monochromatic and vintage look.
    Thank you for playing along with us at Retro Rubber, hope to see you in the gallery often.
    Hugs,
    Maria Rodriguez.

    Oh, this is so pretty in copper! Love the use of Dasher (I still have this stamp as well) and the sketch worked fabulous with your design. The added brads to his antlers are the perfect accent- thanks for sharing with us at The Retro Rubber Challenge Blog :-)

    It is so cool how you embossed the solid reindeer. I usually only emboss lines. Thanks for the great inspiration. The copper is so classy! Thanks so much for joining the challenge!
