Christmas in July & Sad to See These Sets Go

Crazy as it sounds, now would be a good time to start thinking about making your Christmas Cards (if you haven't started on them already!). So, I've been thinking about it - and have you seen how many Christmas sets are being retired (they'll be gone as of August 11th when that new catalog comes out)!?

I made four Christmas cards using all sets that are retiring with the current Stampin' Up! catalog on August 10th.
