SSC #14 - Christmas in July

Welcome to another fun challenge week at Stamptacular Sundays! I always say it's never too soon to start on Christmas projects.. and every year, I say I'm going to start my cards early... and every year, I start planning and creating.... around.... well.... November? :) This year I'll try to do better! Hopefully our challenge this week will help me (and you, too!) get my Christmas Mojo going to get started on some Christmas cards so that I don't have to rush at the end of the year! Well, we'll see....

If the design team has wowed you with their projects throughout the year so far.. just wait until you see what they have to share with you this week! I have seen some Stamptacular creations from the girls this week! Go, give them a visit and leave them some love!

Here's my project for you to ooh and aah over! I've created a bread box to gift a lovely loaf of bread to... someone? Iain will have to eat the bread for now, as I'm sure it won't keep until Christmas, but I'll make more, I promise!I found this tutorial for the bread box on the Scor-Pal website (have I mentioned how much I love my Scor-Pal?) This was so simple and fun, I think I may make up a bunch of these this year! The hardest part was actually dragging myself into the kitchen to make the quickie-bread! In this case it is Cranberry Quickie-Bread, and oh so yummy!

I can't wait to see what you create for Christmas in July! Be sure to join us this week! We have a wonderful prize being offered up by.... Grab-A-Doodle-Do! Who doesn't need more digi-sets?

This box uses Stampin' Up! cardstock, My Mind's Eye patterned paper, Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder, Scallop Oval and Classic Oval Nesties, ribbon and twine from my stash, stamps by Stampin' Up! and Eyelet Border Punch by Stampin' Up!

Thanks for stopping by!
