It's time for the 9th Annual Christmas in July at Bugaboo

Today is the first of 7 days celebrating Christmas in July at Bugaboo

If you don't know that is about, please go HERE for all the details.

If you play along each day you have a chance to become a Guest Designer!

I'm sooo excited to be sharing my creation with you.  Those of you who know me, know I LOVE Christmas.

Day 1 - Saturday Theme

Pick your favourite Movie from the list below:

The Santa Clause - Miracleofn 34th Street - A Charlie Brown Christmas\

I chose the Movie THE SANTA CLAUSe for my inspiration.  

Can you tell by the image?  LOL

I used the Image Tropical Santa - Drink which can be found here in the Bugaboo shop.

I coloured it with copics and added some liquid applique (and heated it) to give the fur on his hat.

I hand-stitched around the image and mat, and added a sentiment from some acrylic stamps in my stash.  I laid some striped paper across the card to give it the feel of a towel and used a paper flower and brad to add a bit of dimension too.  I'm pleased with how this turned out!

I hope you like what I created and are inspired to play along with us!

Day 7 - Freebie Friday and Photo Inspiration

Here's what I created today

I received a gift of water colour paints recently and played around with painting a beach background.
Not bad for a first attempt, even if I do say so myself.
