 This is my inspiration for the midway point of the July challenge at 12 Months of Christmas Cards Challenge.  The optional twist for July is Anything Goes Christmas, but they must still be Christmas Cards.

Happy Birthday

 I've had this card finished for a day or two but had to remember to photograph it when the light was good.  Winter time here so photographing time is a bit more limited.

Seasons Greetings

We are at the midway point of the June Challenge at 12 Months of Christmas.  The optional twist for June is one or two layers.

I have used the digital paper for June from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles.  The images are all stamped images from magazines (not sure of the source of them as they are stored separate to the magazines).  The sentiment is by Sassy's LLC.
