Welcome to Christmas in July Day 2! Today, I am sharing my Jolly Holly Bright & Happy card.

This week Jen Roque and I have teamed up together to bring you a Christmas in July craft along!
Each day this week we are sharing a Christmas-themed project on our YouTube channels, and today you can find this one on mine.

This card was made with the Jolly Holly bundle, a Stampin’ Up! online exclusive. It consists of 16 photopolymer stamps, 7 coordinating dies, and a fun hybrid embossing folder.

I like how you shared the yellow blend is a different color when wet as compared to when it is dry. I could see the difference as you used the blends, but I had not noticed the difference when actually putting down the color. I also like how calm you are when the stamp jumped and transferred black ink to the white card front. It took less than a minute to emboss and change out the card front. So impressive! No stress, just addressed the problem.
Thank you so much Sandy! It’s never fun making an oopsie when you’re filming, but it’s nice to hear that I handled it so well. Glad I could inform you of the wet verses dry look of the Stampin’ Blends too. I appreciate your comments.❤️
