{BYSHC} CHRISTMAS IN JULY LINKY PARTY --JULY, 2025

Hello, crafty friends, and welcome back to my blog!  It's time for the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Christmas in July Linky Party! WOOT, WOOT!  If you haven't heard of this linky party before, the {BYSHC} team invites you all to get your Christmas and holiday card-making supplies out and build up your card stash so you're not so rushed during the holiday season.  Doesn't that sound like fun?  Here is my first card for the party:

So, this card (and the other 2 I will share next week), are actually extras I had from when I created my cards for last month's Sketch 58. I knew that I wasn't going to have much time to create as many cards as I would like to for the linky party, so I saved these just for this. I hope Crystal doesn't mind too much! 😊

This sketch is definitely fantastic for making good use of patterned papers, whether you use both pieces on one card or split them up to make 2!  I really like this green snowflake paper from the Berry and Pine paper pad from Hobby Lobby, and it pairs really well with the My Creative Time sentiment.

Alrighty, my friends, it's time to get busy and build up your holiday card stash, so what are you waiting for?  I know the rest of the DT has been busy creating cards to inspire you, and you know what else is awesome?  We have a whole list of sponsors for this party that you can win prizes from:
