Christmas in July with Country Christmas Layered Die Cuts and CutCardStock

Do you start your Christmas cards early? Perhaps during all the hype over Christmas in July? I make Christmas cards all year round for my stash. I received two Christmas in July presents I am sharing on my cards today. I was asked to join the CutCardStock Design team and received a big box of cardstock!  And Spellbinders sent me some of the gorgeous new Country Christmas release by Annie Williams. 

I am sure you agree you can never have enough cardstock, right? And so you will want to check out the CutCardStock website for quality white and colored cardstock of all kinds at great prices. I decided to feature their Neenah Classic Solar Crest cardstock, black linen and and scenes from their Winter Wonderland Prints on my bridge card. 

I love layered die cuts like the Country Horse Drawn Wagon from Annie Williams but sometimes I don't have the time to cut all the pieces out in different colors. I decided to make my die cut images silhouettes and love the look. 

If you would like a detailed tutorial on how I made this card (and get much more inspiration there too!), visit the CutCardStock blog here.

I had so much fun creating the bridge card with silhouettes above, I created a second card. This one features Spellbinders Country Snowman with his friends, blue linen cardstock and another beautiful print from the Winter Wonderland pad both from CutCardStock.  

Cardmaking Joy & Hugs,
