I decided today to post the cards that I have made already, even though they do not go along with your 'theme' this year. I have been putting them in a box, and decided to clean up and get them put away and organized so that I know where I am in the amount that I need. Thanks for all you do and thanks for looking

1. Shiny Ornament
2. Quilted Bird
3. Peace Angel
4. Dotted Poinsettia
5. Blue Embossed

Thanks for all you do for the Christmas Card Challenge to keep us all on track.

I am going to add my card to the July thread even though I am behind and not up to July yet but it meets the challenge so I would like to add it here!

Thanks

Hi all,

Here are my cards for the July Christmas card challenge. Thanks for looking.

Falalala Blue by Sarah38 - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Dotty Sleigh by Sarah38 - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

[must love cats]

These are the cards that I will be using for my personal greetings this year. It's very different to what I normally do but was great fun putting them together and so quick for a change. Each card is slightly different as I used up odd buttons and scraps of Kraft coloured card.

[smadson]

Congrats to all who have July done! I don't think I even have June done! My DM has been in hospital and now in rehab; don't know what is next, but know it will involve me and a lot of time with her; she is so sweet! We are just trusting God as He is in control. So will do what I can when I can

[Stamperrobin]

Hi ladies,
even though we are having a heat wave here (going on and on), here is my Christmas card for July. :o
CCC13 by Stamperrobin - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

[Stampin Wrose]

Robin, I hope your heat breaks soon. I'm close to SF Bay and we're back to normal, yesterday was only 75 after 8 days around 90. :(

I'm envious that you are so close to Yosemite!! We actually stayed at a time share in Oakhurst - I think it was near Bass Lake - over ten years ago; it was a friend's place that we rented from her. It was over Easter that year and we had snow! We had recently moved from South Florida and my kids had never played in real snow before, so they were out there building snowmen and having a blast!
