QKR Stampede DT card - Challenge #250 - Anything Goes; Option - Christmas in July

This week the Anything Goes challenge at QKR Stampede will give you an opportunity to get an early start on Christmas cards - the option (not required) is Christmas in July. You may enter up to 3 times before 6 p.m EDT Thursday.  The winner receives 2 images, and there are 3 images for a winner who uses a QKR or Eureka image.  For me, this QKR Stampede image (Bethlehem with verse) will be a great one for multiple cards as hubby and I want to include the Christmas message on our cards.
I opted to print the verse and image together, but they could easily be separated for a different look.  I have often used this snowflake embossing folder - I need to get one with stars!  I added gold and deep red layers as well as a Merry Christmas from QKR Stampede.  I must admit it seems a bit out of sync doing a Christmas card with temps hovering around 110!
Keep the victims of the many wildfires, as well as the firefighters, in your prayers.  Our grandson is a hot shot fire fighter stationed in Utah.
