Christmas in July

Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is celebrating Christmas in July so I had to play along with their blog hop and SNSDC63.
I'm using the SNSS Rhubarb's Gingerbread Man digital image for the main focal point, as well as the SNSS Itty Bitties Christmas clear stamp set for the little squares. I colored Rhubarb with Copics and hand-cut and popped him up on the oval with foam tape. I used some dsp from Bella Boulevard along with some rose red card stock. The oval was done with a SB petite scalloped oval doe, and the ribbon is from SU! (retired) The border was done with a SU! fancy scallop punch, and the scalloped squares were done with a SU! scalloped square punch.
Here's wishing you a fabulous Friday and thanks for stopping by!

I see I'm not the only one who is celebrating Christmas in July. ;)

Your card is adorable with a capital A! It is sure to bring a smile to its recipient's face.

What a special festive card. The background paper for the squares actually looks like it is crimped, just the way the colors are in between the squares. I love the way that came out. Terrific job on the coloring of this little guy. Enjoy your weekend.
