"Christmas in July"
says, "Christmas in July is a fun, and perhaps silly, commemoration of the traditional winter holiday but in the typically warm and sunny month of July. There is no one way to celebrate Christmas in July, but there are a few steps to follow if you intend on having a holly jolly time the paper crafter's way.
"Why not invite your family and friends into your home for a Christmas Paper Crafting Party? First, seek out a not-too-ugly Christmas sweater or comfy jammies, a Santa hat, and a favorite Christmas drink (hot or cold). Next, head to the craft room, pull out your Christmas Stash, and turn on your radio, or, click HERE and listen to Christmas carols while creating a Christmas project (cards, tags, ornaments, scrapbook memories, bookmarks, boxes, etc.)."
You can stop here...
OR
play along with Twisted Sister's optional twist below to earn another chance in our random drawing.
says, "Let's not forget we also celebrate Independence Day in the USA on the Fourth of July. My optional twist is to include stars and/or stripes in traditional or non-traditional Christmas colors. Obviously, cards need not be red, white, and blue. We are eager to see how you bring stars and/or stripes into your project. Check out our Design Team projects below to see how we have implemented this twist."
Optional Twist: If you have included stars and/or stripes in your project you will earn another chance in our Random Drawing.
says, "If you have created a Christmas card, and included stars and/or stripes, you are eligible to enter your project HERE for Jingle Belle's Challenge 'Stars & Stripes Forever' and you will earn another chance in our Random Drawing.
