Art with Heart Team Stampin Up Heart of Christmas 2017: Week 8
July 19, 2017
Hello lovelies. We are now up to week 8 of Heart of Christmas bought to you by the Stampin' Up! Art with Heart team! I hope you are enjoying playing along and you are getting some great ideas for your 2017 Christmas cards.
My family have just returned home from the Thailand Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip which was so fun! I hope to do some posts over the coming week about that. Even though it wasn't so far to travel this year, I'm struggling a bit getting my act together after the overnight trip home. Both my own and the kids sleep routine is still a bit messed up so no lot a lot s getting done since we arrived home a couple of days ago.
Given that, I hope you don't mind if I cheat a little this week by posting a card that uses a current stamp set and bundle and was my most pinned Christmas card of last year. I love this card because if it is super simple to do a batch of.
You could also use any patterned paper you have and just pick up two contrasting colours on it to use with the Swirly Birds bundle and the enamel shapes. Later in the week I will post a new version of this card using a current paper so you can see how easy it is to adapt.
Of course the Art with Heart team girls have been super busy coming up with new 2017 Christmas card inspiration for you. Please pay them a visit and see what they have been creating.

So glad that your getting settled back into life after your amazing holiday. I really like that you made a Christmas card from a "normal" stamp set and just makes Stampin' Up! stamps so versatile.

It is a super lovely card Claire, gorgeous colours too! Hope everyone will be back to their normal fighting selves by the weekend and the sleep routine returns too! Time differences no matter even a few hours can knock you around a bit.
