July 2025 Card Chain Reveal

Hi all - summer's flying by & today we're revealing cards that went around the world for the July Card Chain. Twenty people participated and you can find the full reveal HERE. My card went to a newer player - the talented Wendy (Cártaí) in Ireland:

Supplies: Paper - AstroBrights; scrap of white;

Poptone Blu Raspberry; TH Kraft Classics

Dies - Poppystamps Winter Porch Pop up Easel Set,

Corner Shoppe Wooden Cart, Flower and Leaf Sprinkles,

& Nordic Drifting Flowers;

Spellbinders Open House Door Base

Other - Foam tape

We had the following options when creating our cards:

Color Palette Option

Sketch Option

Theme Options: Doors or Windows / Reading / Friendship

Product / Technique Options: Mirror Card / More Than 3 Folds

I chose the color option along with the theme of doors or windows (mine has both!). I also put a friendship sentiment on the inside. 

I die cut the porch pop up set using the color palette & assembled. I left off the snow that makes it a winter porch and added some flower pots so it's a summer scene! The flower pots were die cut using three Poppystamps sets & popped on with foam tape. I also added a few door details (the letterbox & door knob) die cut from a Spellbinders door set. The stopper for the easel was cut using the floor mat from the Spellbinders set. Amazing what you can do with just die cutting!

I received the stunning card below from Joanne (Slices of Life) in Connecticut. I just love the stenciled background - so eye catching!! Thanks, Joanne!!

If you'd like to join the August chain, you have until 8/6/25 to sign up! Just make and send one card - so fun. Please check HERE for the details.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!
