                         Sweet Tag Gift Card      
   



                                                               Happy July!

I cannot believe it's already July and here we are thinking about Christmas cards!  It's actually a hard thing to do when it's 95 degrees outside.  I am in Tampa, Florida and it's been very warm.  But I know if I don't get started now, I will not be able to make all the Christmas cards and special bags that I want to.  I think it's all those distracting holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving stuck in there before hand 
that allows Christmas to sneak up on us.  Well, if you want to do the special things like card making, now is the time.  

I chose several Christmas sets because I wanted to make certain things for certain people.  Then I just couldn't get organized or inspired.  I put all of them on my craft desk along with the remnants of another project that I have not cleaned up.  Okay, it's a wreck.  I had to really push myself to create because I don't like creating in a mess.  I think the creating "Gods" were with me on this on, because I love it.  

This is what I love about Stampin" Up.  Even when your not feeling exactly in the mood, the products work together.  The bundles, papers, ink.....it's just so easy.  

I have to say, I love, love, love the "Celebrate With Tags Bundle."  If I had to choose one item, it would be this one.  First, I am a "tag" girl.  There is something about tags that gets me every time.  It's the interaction and "usefulness" of the tag.  Maybe it's the "surprise of what's inside." But a tag in a pocket?  So this is a must have.  If you purchase the bundle you get to get something for Sale a-bration!  Below I have listed the supplies for this card.  The card is super easy and the tags are fast too!

I hope you love the card!  Please leave a comment if you do!
