Stop by and check out these holidays as I am sure you are going to want to remember these holidays and include them in your card making projects!!!!!

We will have blog candy to the lucky recipient that remarks on each site along the way!

I had National Nude Day, so my project has naked people on it. I made the card before really thinking about what it would be a card for.

After making the card I thought they looked like Adam and Eve and my friend Jenny agreed and so we came up with the sentiment ,"We were made for each other." I cut the people using the Cricut cart Dress Up Paper Dolls and the sun is part of a cut from Country Life. The bushes and the clouds were cut by hand. All of the paper is Stampin' Up card stock. I added Stickles to give the clouds a silver lining.

Thanks for stopping by and mark your calendar again next month to see what Holidays to Celebrate on August 11th for the next Calendar Girls Blog Hop!
