Because we have an “extra” Friday this month, the Paper Therapy Design Team is throwing out another challenge!  This time, we’d like to see you make a card or scrapbooking layout showcasing your favorite holiday.  That’s not too difficult, right?  😉  Be sure to upload your project to the Paper Therapy challenge forum thread for July 29.

I love the happiness and wonder of the Christmas season so I decided to make a Christmas card.  I wanted to start on some Christmas cards for Operation Write Home anyway, so I went with a design that would be easy to mail.  I originally intended to use a “Merry Christmas” stamp for the sentiment, but I felt that this one filled the space on the card better than any of my other holiday sentiments.  I also like that the script “holidays” kind of coordinates with the swirls behind the poinsettia.

Supplies:
Stamps: Season of Joy (Stampin’ Up); Seasonal Sayings (Gina K. Designs)
Cardstock: Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Whisper White (SU)
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green (SU)
Other: 5-Petal Flower punch (SU)
