Digi Choosday - Merry Christmas - Christmas in July - Criss Cross Star card - Gingerbread Cookie collection - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you're having a great week so far....July is here and its proving to be very hot so far this year here in Spain after our cold wet winter.

It's that time of the week to share some more inspiration for our current 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!

Don't Forget that our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!

The theme set for the DT this week is to make a Christmas in July themed card/project.  It always feels very strange making Christmas cards when its so hot but it's good to get ahead...LOL

I decided today to use the super sweet Gingerbread Cookie collection for my Criss Cross Star card today.

The card is 6" x 6" in size and I have simply cut away the left and right corners from a square Kraft card blank.  

Next I chose papers from the collection to decorate the front and inside of the card and also the 2 small triangles that were cut from the card blank. 

The triangles were then adhered to the main card on the front to create a star shape.  I also added an extra strip of card at the bottom of the points for extra support although this is optional.

The little Gingerbread girl was coloured with promarkers before fussy cutting out along with some of the pre-coloured clipart which was used to decorate the card, along with one of the sentiments.

To finish off my card today I've added glossy accents to the gingerbreads icing and gold sparkle pen to the baubles.

I hope that you like my project today and you'll enjoy the next that I share from Polkadoodles.

Hasta luego 👋


Enjoy the rest of your day !
