Merry Christmas in July

Every January 1st I tell myself that I'm going to make my Christmas cards throughout the year so that when December comes, I will be prepared.  Well....you guessed it.  Today I made my first card.  So much for getting an early start.   I know there are many of you who have diligently made "X" number of cards each month.  I'm a good procrastinator, but hopefully I'll get on the ball now and continue to work on Christmas cards.

My card today features BISMARCK.  Bismarck is one of Mo Manning's darling images.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Mo Manning Bismarck digi image, Sentiment is from Papertrey Ink
Cardstock and Paper:  Cardstock is Stampin' Up! and dp is from Recollections "Naughty or Nice collection.
Ink:  Image colored with Copic Markers and sentiment stamped with Stampin' Up! Real Red.
Embellishments:  Martha Stewart "snow" beneath Bismark, Tossle and brim on the hat is Flower Soft Polar White, Stickles glitter in lime green, Liquid Pearls dots on scallop in red, Cuttlebug corner and tag dies, and Nestiblilities circle and scalloped circle dies. and sheer dotted red ribbon from Michaels.

Of course you know I'm nuts about dogs and this week's challenge over at Mo's Digital Challenge Blog is "In the Doghouse" so I just had to use this darling image for the challenge.

Until next time,
Cheers!
