Conie Fong Art & Design: It's Christmas in July! Poinsettia Gnome

My friends in Australia are celebrating Christmas in July since it's Winter there now. They told me they want to have a wintery celebration. It's hard to image it being cold and rainy while we are going through a heat wave and having temperatures well over 100 this week here in California! I do like getting started early on making a few Christmas cards, so I thought July was a great month to get a few made. 

Today's mini-slimline card showcases the adorable Poinsettia Gnome digital stamp by Conie Fong Art & Design. This stamp set comes with two additional poinsettias, which I used one several times on my card.

I used Microsoft Publisher and imported the digital stamps to create this card. I colored the stamps using Copic markers.

Copic Markers Used

Skin: E13, E11, E21, E00

Cheeks: R20

To finish the card, I printed a sentiment and used a banner die from Stamp Anniething to cut it out, along with a red card stock mat. I also added a few enamel dots from my stash.

Thank you for visiting and wishing all those that celebrate Christmas in July, a very Merry Christmas!
