Christmas in July - Photo and freebie

It’s time for my favorite event of the year, Christmas in July over at Catch the Bug. A week of daily challenges, you can see them all in this post. For day 7 we have a photo challenge and the DT members are using this week's freebie.


As Santa is enjoying a day on the beach I decided to use my boat and waves die set from Poppy to make the background. Santa and the die cut boat are colored with Promarkers. I framed the panel using my new and much loved MFT dies.

This card is also for:
C.R.A.F.T. - #477 Christmas
Die Cuttin' Divas - #379 Christmas in July
Passion For Promarkers Challenge - #454 Dies and/or punches
