Christmas in July, part 2

Cardstock: Real Red, Wild Wasabi, Daisy D's 'Paisley Sugarplums'. Accessories: Mary Engelbreit dimensional sticker, Hero Arts felt pointsettias, gems, gemstone brad, red cording, Martha Stewart border punch.

When I first spotted these 3-D stickers complete with glitter accents in the Michael's $1 bin, I knew they would make fun Christmas card focal points. Combine them with this week's Midnight Madness Sketch challenge and you have a quick, yet detailed Christmas card, no stamping required!

Since I've been known to stock up on bargains, I may actually be able to complete my entire Christmas Card Challenge commitment with three packets of these cuties. Great cards and a bargain -- what could be better?
