Christmas In July Day 5


I'm back today for day 5 of Catch The Bug's Christmas in July Challenge.  My inspiration came from Pia's card with the Ho Ho Ho's and Dee's Designs with the "who needs snow?"  I designed everything in Silhouette Studio and then printed it out to color Santa.  I'm very pleased with how it turned out!

Hubby's Christmas Card


Today's card is for Catch The Bug Christmas in July Day 2 Challenge.  I am a couple days behind in their challenges, but that is ok.  I LOVED this image when I saw it and thought it would be PERFECT for my hubby!  I have THE WORST time EVER doing hair!  I was trying to copy my hair color, but I'm trying to go gray and I just couldn't make JJ's hair look good!  Anyhow, I think hubby will get a chuckle out of her:)
