Christmas In July: Going Red & Green


Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the A.C. is so delightful!  We've had a major heat wave in our area this week, so I thought you might enjoy looking towards cooler days.  Think Christmas in July as you are stampin' out this work week!

We are going red & green with our first project.  It's actually a container originally used for single serve apple packs.  After washing it up, I turned it into the perfect package for homemade fudge, candy, or any Christmas goody or gift (edible or non-edible).  There is even plenty of room on the top to include a To, From, & a heartfelt note.

This project easily translates for other holidays, events, & gifts in general.  
Switch out the color scheme, stamp set, and you've got a brand new look.
Imagine it as a snazzy "back to school" pack or filled with a mani/pedi kit!  
The possibilities are endless!

More Christmas In July Next Week!
Stay cool as you stamp our your work week!
