Jolly Holly Christmas in July

Carrying on with my Christmas in July series, I share a card created with Stampin’ Up!’s Jolly Holly Bundle. Find it as one of Stampin’ Up!’s Online Exclusives. Click here to check out all of the online offerings.

This bundle packs a lot of punch. It includes a stamp set with holiday images as well as a variety of word choices where you can build your desired sentiments. Also, find rectangle stitched tags, an embossing folder, and a 3D die cut/embossing folder combination. (See this past video for a look at how the folder works.)

Today’s card features a 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 square design. The good news: This creation still fits in one of Stampin’ Up!’s Basic White Medium Envelopes.

  • Real Red Cardstock base measuring 8 1/2 x 4 1/4, scored at 4 1/4
  • Silver Foil panel measuring 3 3/4 x 3 3/4
