Christmas in July!

This week Mary over at CARDZ TV has a Christmas in July challenge. You must use an animal on your card. I used my Cricut Expression and the Winter Woodland cartridge to make my card. Everything was cut at 2 1/4". I used the branch, bird and the "Peace" word. I really like how it turned out! I did non traditional Christmas colors. My herringbone paper is from Recollections. The copper paper for the branch was a scrap as were the papers that I used for my bird. A little white gel pen doodling,3 buttons and a ribbon complete the card.
It was nice to "think cool" when the temps here today reached the high 80's!
Have a great week everyone! I start back to work tomorrow after a nice 2 week break. It will be nice to see the children again as I have missed them!

I would like to enter the following challenges:
CARDZ TV - Christmas in July (w/ animal)
That Craft Place - Anything Goes
The Squirrel & The Fox - Christmas in July
2 Sisters - Christmas in July (no red or green)
