Good morning everyone!!! Welcome to my portion of the JustRite Stampers "Christmas In July" blog hop. I hope you have enjoyed all of the amazing projects that you have seen from the design team so far. It is such an honor to be part of such an amazing team!!
My project for the hop today consists of a Christmas card ensemble with a box. I found the instructions for this box set on Splitcoast here. It was very easy to do and would make a great gift idea. It could be made with Birthday cards, general occasion cards, etc.
I decided to go with non-traditional Christmas colors. I think the pink and black are really nice together. The paper comes from the DCWV Christmas Stack.
Below is a photo of the box top. I chose a designer center and border from the "Hearts Come Home" stamp set which is now shipping at JustRite. These 2" square borders & centers are perfect for Christmas cards as well as scrapbook pages.
Below is a look at the complete "From Our House" stamp set. This is the set that I used to make my Christmas cards.
Here is a look at the complete "Hearts Come Home" stamp set that I used for the top of the box.
This is what the cards look like together. They match pretty well. I think that I will probably make more to fill up my box, but I just didn't have time to do that yet.
Below are photos of the individual cards as well as a closeup of the stamped image.
