It's Christmas in July at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2

Hello and welcome to my blog.

We have a Christmas in July optional twist over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month and these are the cards which I created.

For my first card I used a Lili Of The Valley Simply Print image called All of Us, some very old Craftwork Cards paper and a sentiment, some Hobby House ribbon, holographic card, some gems and SSW2 sketch no 232 on a 6x6 card base.

 For this second card I used a snowman image from an old Lili of the Valley Artpad, my papers are from Nitwit collections Festive Trimmings and I used the scraps/ leftover snippets to make the design up. I've also used a Little Claire Sentiment, some glitter card and gems. The ribbon is from my stash and I used sketch 232 for this card which is about 4 and a half inches square.

I would like to enter these cards in the following challenges

Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge-601 - Anything Goes as Longas it's Christmas

Christmas Kickstart Challenge- Show us Your Snowfolk

Christmas with the Cuties - Anything Cute and Christmas

Snippets Playground - Where the challenge is to use yoiur snippets which I did on my second card

Stay safe everyone

Flower box card

 Here's a card I made for my sister earlier this year.

It's a box card in a gatefold with a belly band.

The flower and leaf stamps are Julie Hickey Designs and I used the matching dies to cut them out.

The mechanism die is Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott from Craft Stash as are the papers.

The sentiment is also Julie Hickey Designs and  the dies I used for that are from Stampin Up.

I am entering this card at the following challenges

Do-All Kreatives where the challege is for a box card - I hope this fits the bill

and Allsorts who have flora and / or fauna

Thank you for visiting.
