Christmas in July

I was delighted to be invited to be Jo's Guest Designer for her July challenge over on her Tales from the Craft Room blog.  The theme this month is 'Christmas in July'. 
I used a Bugaboo 'Reindeer Peeker' digi stamp, which I coloured with Promarkers.  I thought it would be fun to have Rudolph poking his head around the wall of a house.  The embossed Core'dinations card was sanded to give the bricks a distressed look.  I used a Poppystamps 'Small Madison Window' die, which I cut in white and then again in grey so I could inlay the window panes. 

 It's never too early to start making Christmas cards, so I hope to see lots of your Christmas creations over in the Tales of the Craft Room challenge.

 I am joining in the following challenges:
ABC Christmas Challenge ~ N - No peeking and O - Ornament (Hope my card covers both of these themes)
Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #348 ~ Holiday
Scribbles Designs Challenge #78 ~ Make it Square
SheepSki Designs Challenge #28 ~ Early Christmas/Winter

    I know what you mean about starting early for Christmas but it does feel odd to be doing so when the sun is shining from a blue sky. This is a great card and the reindeer is brilliant.
