Pink is Christmas Too

Up until a few months ago...embroidery was my thing. 



June/July is when you find the first sets of Christmas embroidery designs.



  Maybe that's why I'm thinking about Christmas!!! 









to make this Christmas Card (that's 2 for my stash!).





I am loving bright colors and not wanting traditional colors...can you tell? :)



Weird thing...one quilt store I visited said they got the Christmas fabrics in the summer...and got Fall materials after that. 



Is there a similar pattern with stamps? 


I would appreciate any insight on this! ;)



I am also entering this in  Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge Week #60~~Buttons.

 
Thanks for peeking in. ;)

    Very creative use of that stamp. I was looking at mine trying to decide what to do with it and I really like the plad in it. Makes a really cute flower. Usually stamps come out a month or so before the holiday. It really depends on the company.

    Love the colors you chose for this Marlena! I cannot even think about Christmas this time of year. Actually, I don't even like to think about it until after Thanksgiving. LOL!!!
