Christmas in July - How is it July already?!

Yes sir-ree - it's the annual Bugaboo Stamps Christmas in July celebration this week!

Before I share with you details of the week and my creation for Livy's special note box, I wanted to share with you a a recent Bugaboo team loss.

Our design teemie Julie Temple passed away recently - a friend who left this world too soon! :(  Julie has been a Bugaboo since 2011.  A talented creator, a kind soul and a valuable teamie

This is one of my favorite Julie cards she recently created - it reminds me of my munchkin's 2nd Farm birthday.

In honor of Julie - we celebrate her life and love for creativity!  We are all better for having her in our lives <3 p="">

Switching gears to our Annual Christmas in July Celebration in Julie's honor - 

Today's challenge - 

It's a Theme Challenge:

 

So, with all that is going on in the world, working from home (more then I did when I worked in an office), it being summer and having a 5 year old, my crafting time is so limited, it's nearly NON-EXISTENT.  However, I couldn't help but participate in this weeks challenge.  I whipped up this little knobby knees Christmas card for Livy's special note box.  Complete with a button (she like me when I was little - LOVES my button box (which my mom passed down to me and I've added to).  So, only fitting something going in her special box has a button on it!
