I've got a few pics... hang in there!
We'll call it Christmas/Fall in July with a fun addition!! I'm showcasing the Christmas in July and a fun sentiment!!
First up is this fabulous tree... LOVE!! So whimsical...aren't those curly cues on the ends of the branches fabulous and the swirly snow!!
Stamped the image a couple of times and colored with copics, the tree was popped up with foam dots and then, I added another tree to the inside leaving the ends of the branches loose. Used traditional Christmas colors, added a lot of layers, some stitching, and a big ole' bow. The star was stamped several times, fussy cut, glittered in bronze and popped up everywhere... having too much fun!!
Here's the inside...
Next up is a snowman/snowwomen :)
Used some non-traditional colors on this one. Stamped the image, colored with copics and fussy cut.. The snowman was inserted between some patterned paper hills and popped up for dimension. The background textured paper was stamped with a Serendipity snowflake (enlarge the pic- the detail is fabulous) and heat embossed with white.
My last card... was a bit of fun!!
Mary created this sentiment to go with... well, anything!! This is my scrappy card.
Was thinking about my sis when I made this one... she has a BIG B-Day coming next year and... party plans are a week at a house at Hilton Head (looking at 16- that's a big week long party for us) .... didn't have to twist my arm to go to the beach!!
If you lasted this long, thanks!

Your new blog is gorgeous too, not sure if I told you that yet.
I love the colors you achieved on the tree and the snowman is just adorable! I love Christmas in July for inspiration!
Love your cards with the whimsical Christmas stamps. The snowman is so cute.
great cards and stamps!!! I love that tree... thanks for sharing!!
Love the cards!Very Pretty!!!Love the stamps!!!
You did an amazing job on both cards, especially that snowman!
You've been busy! Fun, funky tree and an adorable snowman image. Loving the last card with the diagonal. Great work on all of them :)
Great sample cards. Very inspiring. I especially love the tree and snowman.
LOVE that tree...especially with that beautiful striped ribbon! Kind of reminds me of a tree you would find in Whoville!
These are great cards. Love the Christmas images and what you've done with them.(Snowmen are great but living in Florida I feel it's not appropriate to use them on my cards...not sure why--it doesn't bother me when my neighbors do. I'll have to work on getting over that quirk.) TFS
You blew me away here Vickie - Smitten with you my friend! Wow! That yummy bow on the first and all the layers, the drifty background with the snowflakes behind the snowman - and swoon that bitty star and bow!... and then bam! How clever to pair up those sentiments! Absolutely perfect!
Like the tree-different! I also like the coloring for your snowman. Like both cards.
BEAUTIFUL Cards Vicki!! Love your coloring of that cute tree and your big stripey ribbon is just PERFECT!! Also loving the snowman and your coloring of that one as well. They're all great. *Ü*
These cards are great Vicki...love them all but that one with the great red/white bow is my favorite. I also really love your card with that cute snowman. Great job, you are so good with Serendipity stamps!
"Rocking around the Christmas tree..." I love how the tree looks like it's dancing!!

They are all spectacular, but the Christmas tree is my favorite. I just love how you matted and framed it.
