I always start thinking about Christmas in July for a couple of reasons. During the summer I have more time to create my Christmas cards and it gives me a chance to start thinking about the gifts that I'll make. And sometimes this Maryland humidity is just too much for me that I actually wish we had snow! The weather has been beautiful so far this summer, not too hot and not too much humidity!

I typically send out about 100-125 Christmas cards each year so I try to create cards that can be reproduced fairly quickly. I'm still holding out for a new holiday stamp set for this year but I pulled out some stamps that I already to have to create a couple of contenders. I really like this pink color combo! I noticed that in previous years my cards have been red, green, black, & kraft so I may choose a non-traditional color scheme this year.
