Christmas in July Crop Challenge

Hey there Everyone! Happy Friday to you!

The Christmas in July Crop is in full swing at A Walk Down Memory Lane and yesterday was my day to post a challenge. I think my favorite part of Christmas, besides celebrating Jesus' birthday, is decking the halls with lovely decorations. It is always so fun to do this with the family and just puts me in a good mood to look around and see all the things that bring about different memories. So I decided I wanted to help you all get a head start on creating a new decoration for your house for Christmas this year.

My challenge is to create a home decor item with a Christmas theme. I decided to go with a banner since I love them! They are so much fun to make and go really quickly. I also had this in mind because I thought it would be great to hang on our front door to welcome all the guests during the season.

Joy Banner



This is kind of hard to see so here is each letter separate:

O

I used Pink Paislee's Mistletoe & Co. collection papers, my Marvy circle punches, some American Crafts Zing! embossing powder on the letters, The Girls' Paperie chipboard letters, and some Ranger distress ink to create this along with some stuff I had in my stash. All the products I listed can be found in the A Walk Down Memory Lane store.

To play along with the Christmas in July Crop, just head on over to the AWDML DT blog and check out the challenges. Once you have created, link them back up to Mr. Linky by the 21st and midnight (PST) for your chance to win some awesome goodies from Jillibean Soup!!

Happy Scrappin'! ~ Scarlett
