During this time Lori will be providing the 2nd Annual "Christmas in July Summer Link-Up! from July 3 until August 31st.  There is a $15 Starbucks card up for grabs via Random.org to one lucky participant throughout the Northern Summer.  Hope you will continue to make Christmas cards during the break.
