Christmas Cheer!

 Hey crafty friends!
 
We're just back from a trip to the beach and it was hot, hot, hot!  Of course, it's been too hot here at home also as we are expecting another "heat dome" to hit us on Wednesday.  I'm seriously ready for the "ber" months already and thinking of cooler weather and Christmas.
 
I've seen so many Christmas in July challenges that I decided to join in and create a pocket Christmas tag to start the holiday projects and Christmas cards.

I pulled out some Graphic 45 papers from years ago and made this pocket tag with a die cut set from Sizzix.  I adhered some fussy cut images to the back of a panel cut out, added foam tape for dimension and made it the focal image on the pocket front.  
 
The tiny die cut flowers are similar to the design in the paper.  I added glitter to the petals and jewels to the centers.  The pocket holds a matching gift tag with a plain back for writing a message and/or recipient name.  This tag is making me excited for Christmas already.  I think I'm going to work on Christmas card designs soon too!

Hope to see you again soon.
