Hey everyone! It’s July and that means that it’s time for the traditional Christmas in July release at Waffle Flower! You may have already seen some sneaks on the Waffle Flower IG feed or the Waffle Flower Blog but today we’ve go lots more to see and chances to win some of these new release goodies too! I’ve got a bunch to post today, so let’s get started!

This first set uses the new Oversized Merry Christmas Print and Small Ornaments dies. I love using rainbow colors for the holidays!

This next card uses the Oversized Merry Christmas Print die again but this time with some cardstock strips. To dress up the striped background, I die cut it with the Dashed Snowflake Panel Die. Love the extra detail it adds!

The Dashed Snowflake Panel Die is used in this next card as well but this time cut with one of the previously released Portrait Arches dies and Layered Poinsettia dies. For the sentiment I used the new Merry Christmas Duo Foil Plate and coordinating dies. Love those foil plates!

This next card is one of my favorite cards this release and one of the easiest to do! I used the new Radiating Diamond Frame die with the other foil plate from the Merry Christmas Duo Foil Plate set. The background is an infinity shaker made with a WFC shaker cover and the new Snowy Pine Trees stencil. There’s a circle and rectangle version of the Radiating Diamond Frame too!

Last but not least, this card uses the new Random Dots Foil Plate with the previously released Slimline Christmas Tree die set. I used the plate to hot foil a rainbow foil onto white glitter paper. It works amazingly well and is so sparkly!

That’s it for me today, but there are lots more to see in the hop! The next stop on the hop is fantastic Caly Person!
