BYSHC - Christmas in July Linky Party! - Day 1

Today is Day 1 of the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Christmas in July Linky Party!  

It's a great time to build up your stash of hoilday cards with the bonus of a week of fun and prizes!!

More details about the linky party, sponsors, and prizes on the BYSHC Blog.

In addition to this special July event, you can always work on our monthly sketches and add them to the album in BYSHC FB Group

I kept my first card on the simple-side - mainly featuring die cuts and my latest obsession with foiling!  

The base is a red-foiled Seasonal Sprig Foil It mini-slim size toner card front from Taylored Expressions.  The same red foil is used on cardstock to die cut the Kaiser Craft sentiment from the Hanging Script Bauble set. I love how the red patterned paper with the smaller of Pinkfresh's Mini Slimline Frames die set looks with the background.  

Here's another shot from the side so you can see a bit of the shine from the foil.

Memory Box's Pine Needle Trio dies supplied the perfect pop of green for the card.  I just randomly put greens on a piece of watercolor paper and then die cut them.  The variation works well for layering.

I hope you can play along with us over the next week.  Post your cards on the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Blog and share your creations on social media using the hashtag:   #christmasinjuly2022byshclp
