IT'S CHRISTMAS IN JULY TIME AT BUILD YOUR STASH HOLIDAY CARDMAKERS -- JULY 2024

Hello, hello crafty friends!  It's time for the Christmas in July Linky party at {BYSHC}, WOOT!  WOOT!  We have a great lineup of sponsors for our hop again, which you can see in the blog post HERE.  Take note of the dates on the graphic:  

Here is my card:  

I used a sponsor's product on this card, but you can't see it!  It's called Sticky Lines, and it's from Therm-o-Web.  I had never used the Sticky Lines product before, but I am definitely a fan!  It is supposed to be used to adhere ribbons and borders, and it works absolutely perfectly!  My ribbon width wasn't as wide as the Sticky Line, so I did spend some time removing the exposed adhesive (crafty OCD), but I think it was well worth it in the end.  The ribbon is a super cute transition between the patterned paper and the card base.  Let's go over the card ingredients.
