The Polar Express Stationary Box.....

 I think you will all have a little chuckle with this title I have chosen for my post......here we are having a heat wave and I have Christmas Polar Bears on my mind! Well, all for good reason, I think! Last year, I was so behind with my Christmas cards and did not want that to happen again. So I have made a class project for Stamping Bella's July classes......Christmas in July!

 My little polar bear is from Stamping Bellas...Polar Bear Circle!
My project is complete with a stationary box which holds 4 polar express tags, 4 polar express 3X3 cards, 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 polar express cards with envelopes included. This way everything is all together and you just have to pull it out when you need them this Christmas and VOILA you have some hostess cards, some gift tags and cards too. Now granted, this project may seem a crazy thing to tackle in the summer, but I think we all need a little something to do in the summer months when it is a little too hot to venture to far.

Oh they are gorgeous! We are also having a heatwave with up to 38°C !!! Girl...this is just terrible this heat!!! Usually I already hate it on holidays if it is over 33°C...but then I have a pool next to me. At work we have no air-condiotions, also not at home....so sleeping is a nightmare!!
Your polarbears cool m,e up a bit! ;)
Hugs,
