Baby's 1st Christmas


Good morning, I hope that you all enjoyed a nice summer weekend. If it is like here, it is hot, hot, hot. Over on the StampFairy challenge we want to help cool you down. We are celebrating Christmas in July and I do hope that you will join us. In addition to following the theme of Christmas we are asking that you make an easel card. For those of you who have not yet tried this, you really need to give it a shot as they are so much fun to make.
As I know a number of people who have just had babies, I decided to make a Baby's 1st Christmas card. The image is Chubby Christmas Angel and you can find him in the store here. I have colored him up to go with this paper from Basic Grey and then added some stickles to his wings. The metallic snowflakes were a dollar store find from last Christmas and I have used a sentiment that I found online to complete the card.

Before I go, I want to show a new set of images that have just been released today.
