Last day of July = last day of my “Christmas in July” daily posts, and I love that it falls on a Sunday because I love to CASE the Catalog on Sundays (CTCS). This week’s CASE the Catty Sunday challenge is to “case a Christmas Tree project from the July – December 2022 Mini Catalogue,Continue reading “CTCS – Christmas Barn meets pg 43 (Annual Catalog)”

Sweet Candy Canes
Going back to the products in the Sweetest Christmas suite of products and today I’m focusing on the Sweet Candy Canes Bundle. I featured this bundle in a post on the 2nd day of “Christmas in July” so how fitting to use it again on the 2nd to last day of Christmas in July. ThisContinue reading “Sweet Candy Canes”
Caroling Mouse Rejoices
Today’s project uses the Caroling Mice stamp set–a Host Rewards stamp set that I posted a project a few days ago–only it’s one mouse that’s caroling the song O’ Holy Night. Here’s the stamp set: This stamp set is darling — and it is a great one to color. I used my Stampin’ Blends ofContinue reading “Caroling Mouse Rejoices”
Christmas Place Setting
Okay, I have to admit…I’m a bit ready to be done with Christmas in July. I’m having fun making these projects, and I LOVE Christmas (it is my favorite), but today it was 105 degrees and it is SUMMER, so I’m about done. But, a commitment’s a commitment…so I’ll keep going ’til July 31. ToContinue reading “Christmas Place Setting”
Painted Christmas Gift Card Holder
Are we sick of Christmas yet? No…Christmas in July rocks! (It’s like 100 degrees here in NC, so keeping this going through July 31 might be hard). I’m loving the projects I have made to share with you though, so I’ll keep going. Today’s post features the Painted Christmas DSP and the Christmas to RememberContinue reading “Painted Christmas Gift Card Holder”
Dec 23-24: Merry Christmas!
This project was supposed to be posted on Dec 23, but given that it’s now Dec 24 and I’m still stampin’ (living up to my name, I guess) I’m making this my last post in my December countdown. One of the last gifts I got to make for Christmas are bookmarks for my husband. He’sContinue reading “Dec 23-24: Merry Christmas!”
Dec 22 – Happy Holly-Days Gift Card Holder
Only a few more days, and I have just a few more gifts to wrap and I’m finished.

Dec 20 – Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin Kit
Continuing our posting today with another kit – highlight on the Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin kit from Nov 2021. This afternoon I made up these gift boxes from this kit to package up some gift cards for Christmas gifts. Aren’t these boxes ADORABLE? I love love love this Paper Pumpkin Kit. It’s been a whileContinue reading “Dec 20 – Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin Kit”
Dec 19 – Tags and Kits!
I know, it’s Dec 20, but you can expect two posts today. First, yesterday’s post– I finished making all of my Christmas cookies and packaging them up to deliver to friends and neighbors. This is a busy time–days before Christmas–which means limited time to make anything last minute. This is where Stampin’ Up! Kits areContinue reading “Dec 19 – Tags and Kits!”
