Ink. Stamp. Share. July Blog Hop - Christmas in July

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 

Welcome to my blog, thank you for joining me today 😀

I am hoping with the Ink. Stamp. Share blog hop and out theme is Christmas in July. I decided to create a Christmas scene using the Tree Lot dies which are Free with a £90 spend during Sale-A-Bration. The dies match the stamp set Trees For Sale and I think I am a little in love with them. I was not too sure at first but I love this little caravan. I was actually born in a caravan ... if any of my family are reading this they will now be laughing or face palming ... as it has now become a family joke! But it is never the less true I was born in a caravan and therefore I do love caravans. 

Measurements and Materials

• Card base 
• Half a standard sheet
• 8 1/4" x 5 7/8"
• Score @ 4 1/8" on the long side
• US size card - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2
• Score @ 4 1/4"

• I used the blending brushes to create the back ground
• The Christmas greeting from the Penguin Place stamp set fits the little die cut sign really well
• I do love the little bow in the die set as well
• I decided to stamp the tree images then die cut rather than use the detailed die, I really like how it turned out. 
• Don't you just adore the Christmas wreath on the caravan door?
• I added a little step using one of the tree trunk dies, I felt it needed this
• I love the little extra detail of the frilled curtain at the window which I cut from a scrap of Hues Of Happiness DSP
