Christmas in July!

Hello Tutti friends and fans! Jenn here today with a fun "Christmas in July" card! This is my first Christmas card of the year and I am just loving the newly released Tutti Festive Ornaments Die! For all of the new July release Click here.

The Festive Ornaments Die is part of several dies released this month.

In addition to this die I have also used:

This card was not only super fun to create but its fairly quick and simple as well.

Start with a piece of cardstock in the color of your choice. I chose to use a blue for my base because this color scheme is a favorite of mine for the Holidays.

Create a card base that measures 4 1/2" X 5 1/2" folded.

Cut three of the Festive Ornaments. If going with the same colors these are blue, white, and red. Cut mats for the front and inside of the card (red here) that measure 4 5/8" X 5 5/8". Next cut a front mat from a decorative paper that measures 4 1/4" X 5 1/4". Set all aside. use the Dotted nesting squares die to cut 3 different sizes. One from decorative, one plain, and one from a cut away such as the lined with bird that I have used from an Echo Park paper collection. Use the smaller Stitched nesting tag Dies to cut two. I have used red and blue for mine and used a rub-on greeting in white on the red. I layered the red tag on top of the blue using foam adhesive squares to lift it up a bit.
Next cut apart the Festive ornaments red and blue die cuts and adhere them to the white.
