If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, but if you want to follow our team's blogs, then please start at the beginning and join Brae Montgomery  http://wp.me/p4htXJ-FF.  If you came from Jessice Fenn http://createbythelake.blogspot.com/2015/08/august-team-braeer-blog-hop.html then you are in the right place!  Hope you were inspired by her great ideas!

 For one of my card parties, the hostess asked me to demo Christmas Cards!  So I decided to use one of the retiring stamp sets with some of the new products coming in September that we can order now! For this card, I used the spring flower to make it look like a Poinsettia!



For the Poinsettia's I used the spring flower and leaf from A Budding Friendship $19.75 D1602 Set of 13 Recommended My Acrylix® Blocks: 2" × 2" (Y1003), 3" × 3" (Y1006), 2" × 3½" (Y1009)

Unfortunately this set *Retires September 1, 2015. So you will need to order it this month if you don't have it already!!

These are the markers that I used to color the card with.  Don`t forget about the special on the marker holder for August! You get a free Stamp set called Balloon Wishes with the purchase of the marker roll up.

I used the new Coral Shimmer Trim (Z3088)
The saying came from the Stamp of the Month set:
Reminder that if you spend $50 before taxes and shipping you can get this cute stamp set for only $5!

$19.75 S1508

Get this D-size Stamp of the Month set for a deal with a minimum qualifying purchase! Add the stamp set to your cart on this page at full retail price or, with your qualifying order, add it at checkout for the promotional price. Set of 12 Recommended My Acrylix® Blocks: 1" × 3½" (Y1002), 2" × 3½" (Y1009) Stamp images outlined in red coordinate with the Cricut® Artistry Cartridge (Z3167).
