Merry Christmas in July card

Hi everyone,
 It's a little chilly, so I thought I'd scrap these pics of my trip to Canada (quite a few years ago).  The Christmas Emporium papers were perfect.


I lightly sprayed some mists to give a snowy feeling to my page.


Cut one of each size of 'Evergreen Trees' and lightly mist for a bit of shimmer.


 Cut 'Simone's Style from white cardstock and attach towards lower edge of the page.  
Cut a large mat and layer a few strips of the striped paper beneath photos.


Adhere Evergreen Trees using 3D foam tape to add dimension on the smallest one.


Cut 'Christmas Wish' and use it as a journaling block.  Attach towards top right hand side.

Next I'd like to share with you, how I made my 'Christmas in July' card.  
Take a sheet of Core'dinations cardstock and trim to 12 inches X 9 inches.  Cut a 3 inch square from the two lower corners using a precision trimmer.  Score fold-lines, your finished card will be 6x6 inches, with the three flaps folded in.


Die-cut two 'Mistletoe' from green card-stock.


Cut one 5 1/2 X 2 3/4 from the header on the sentiments paper, 'Merry Christmas', two sentiment blocks and fussy-cut a foliage cluster.
Cut one 5 1/2 X 5 1/2, and four 5 1/2 X 2 3/4 from green patterned paper.


Cut two foliage pieces as shown.


On the outside of the left and right flap attach green patterned paper, and foliage pieces, highlight with red Glitzn'Glamour.  Attach fussy-cut foliage cluster to the outside of the bottom flap.


Attach patterned paper to the inside flaps as shown, adhere sentiment blocks.  Die-cut a 'Christmas Trinket' from Core'dinations glitter card-stock and attach as pictured.


Highlight holly berries using red Glitz'n Glamour.




And here's what it looks like when closed up.
