Masculine Christmas Wishes

Happy last day of June!  I am all set for tomorrow, I've got my Christmas tee shirts (it's actually cool enough tonight for Christmas PJs and socks which given that it's June, I don't have any idea what to do with this development, especially when just last week it was hot enough to fry eggs on the cement!) and my Christmas music and movies and I'm Christmas crafting up the wazoo!!

I wanted to create a card for the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Sketch challenge, and when I was going through my patterned papers, I thought that it would be fun to make more of a masculine Christmas card since I never do.

• A Perfect Time To Craft - #6 Anything Goes
• DL Art Linky Party
• Classic Design Challenge - #5 Anything Goes
• BYSHC Sketch #46
• Word Art Wednesday - #654 Anything Goes 1/5

Create It 3 Ways IG Hop - SUMMER

Hi everyone!  I’m participating in an Instagram hop today called Create It 3 Ways!  Hosted by the lovely @amritapettus, this fun hop will take place the third Saturday of every month!  Super fun.  The theme for June is Summer!  What's more summery than popsicles and ice cream bars??  We're headed for a verrrrry hot week here so this fit right in with my mood.  Bring on the ice cream!

I'm seriously considering getting a lemon popsicle just looking at these!

This one was meant to be a mint chocolate chip ice cream bar, strawberry popsicle and neapolitan ice cream bar.

A few challenges for this card:

• A Perfect Time To Craft - #6 Anything Goes
• DL Art Linky Party
• Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge - Sketch #581
• Mirtillamente - #32 Anything Goes 2/5

My favorite of the three!  I'm not a huge fan of sprinkles but I really like a vanilla ice cream bar with chocolate coating, preferably with crushed almonds!  It's like a Crunch Bar ice cream.

and a few more for this fabulous and fun card:

• Four Seasons Challenge - Summer 1/3
• Cardz4Galz - #227 Summer Fun 1/3
• Aud Sentiments - #314 Summer 1/5

• Sheepski - #87 Anything Goes 2/3
• Digi Chooseday - #23 Anything Goes 2/4
• Word Art Wednesday - #652 Anything Goes 2/5
• TGIF - Sketch #477

I'm not sure if I think these are like smoothie bars or fruit and cream, but I love the marbled paper for ice cream bars, such a cool idea!!

Just a few challenges for this last card:

• Classic Design Challenge - #5 Anything Goes
