Exploring Cricut - Christmas In July Hop!!

Happy Monday! Who is ready for a Christmas Hop? If you hopped from Emily then you are in the right spot. If not, hop back to the beginning, Exploring Cricut, so you don't miss a thing. The list is below if you get lost along the way!  Our Design Team has some awesome projects for inspiration and at the end you will be able to enter the challenge to show us a Christmas project. Don't forget to use your Cricut for the challenge.  This hopefully will give you a jump start on your holiday preparations.  You have until Saturday to enter our challenge:)

I decided to get busy with a Christmas layout. We always have fun trimming the tree and last year was no different. After doing so many years of holiday layouts sometimes it is hard to think of new titles for wonderful memories. When I was looking at the pictures of this event I saw a lot of bling on the ornaments as well as the tree. I thought it would be fun to give the title some extra sparkle. Hope you enjoy!!

I added stickles to the tree stamp.

I cut the "bling" out and then adhered to the creme paper. I then stickled the word with red adding glittery floss for some more texture. All that is left to do is add a journaling block on the red circle. 

What would a hop be if it weren't for candy inspiration!! To win: Let me know you are a follower and how to get a hold of you in the comments below. I will draw a winner Sunday evening. Good luck!!

Here is the line up for the hop. Be sure to start at the beginning so you don't miss a thing:)
