Christmas in July 2020 #1/ Recycle with me #4 candle sticker packaging

Hello, welcome back to my blog.  Today I’ve got a super simple slimline card over on my YouTube channel. This card is also a part of my Recycle with me series. 

Today also kicks off the start of my Christmas in July card series here and over on YouTube.  

As I mentioned above this card is super simple. I saved the sticker packaging off a candle last year after Christmas.  I knew I wanted to use it in a project so I thought a Christmas in July card would be the perfect fit.  

I chose to do a slimline card as the sticker was almost the perfect size for this. I only needed to cut off a bit of the sticker.  Though I added that to the inside of the card to add some Christmas cheer inside.  



For the Sentiment I used the “Season’s Greetings” stamp from Simon Says Stamp’s Peace on earth stamp set.   I used Simon Says Stamp clear embossing ink and applied Simon Says Stamp white embossing powder to emphasize the sentiment on the black cardstock and make it stand out on the card.   To heat set the embossing powder I used my heat tool.  



As a final touch a sprayer some gold shimmer mist on the card to add a little glitter and shine.  The gold didn’t really show up but it does have a shimmer to it especially on the black area with the sentiment.  The shimmer is from Michael’s Recollections and it their Mica Powder.  I recently picked it up at Michael’s and you can see more details about those in my Michael's haul video over on YouTube.  









Thanks for stopping by and Happy Christmas in July. Let the festivities begin and get those Christmas projects started.
