Christmas in July 2026 – day 27

Today’s prompt led me to grab the Peace and Joy stamps and dies and that made me think of my lovely friend Martin and the card that he made back in 2020 where I first saw his work … and as they say the rest is history!

My card is above and it is very much made as a tribute to Martins card …

So different but very similar!

I encourage anyone who isn’t already – please go follow Martin – he is so creative and I love his style – helps he is also a lovely person too!

Added my own twist by both amending the placement of the wreath, using different leaves and adding the vellum rather than the white for the centre of the wreath.

But very much in keeping with his fab original!

Inside the card just added the leftover leaves as an overlapping strip at the bottom of the white panel!

My thanks go to Martin for the many creative inspirations he has provided over the years and for his friendship!
