In my stamping group the Christmas challenge for this month was stripes, I went through all my things and I had two stamp sets with stripes so I made two cards of each.
- Impression Obsession - Leaf ornament stamp, colored w/markers and fussy cut and Pine Branch dies
- Anna Griffin - Christmas scrapbook cardstock
- Brad
- Starform - Merry Christmas sticker
I added a little bit of dimension behind the ornament and pine branches with foam adhesive
This second one is pretty much the same just colored differently and different sentiment sticker
- Impression Obsession - Leaf ornament stamp, colored w/markers and fussy cut and Pine Branch dies
- Anna Griffin - Christmas scrapbook cardstock
- Brad
- Elizabeth Craft Designs - Merry Christmas sticker
When I do the same stamps on several cards I always want to change something about them so this one I changed up the paper and the dies I cut the stamp image from. The first I used several strips of scrap paper I had left in the paper pack. There is only dimension from popping up the image panel on these.
- PowerPoppy - Candy Cane classic Digital stamp, colored w/markers
- Lilybee designs - Jingle papers
- Pink & Main - sentiment strip dies
- Simon says - Tiny Christmas words
With this one I used some papers that had stripes too
- PowerPoppy - Candy Cane classic Digital stamp, colored w/markers
- Graphic 45 - Christmas Emporium papers
- PPD - Distressed Edge Rectangle set
- Simon Says - Tiny words Christmas sentiment stamp
- Pink & main - sentiment strip dies
This last card I did for my cardmaking groups challenge which was to make a special fold card. Since I try to keep things really simple for my Christmas cards I only made one for this challenge.
- PowerPoppy - Wreath: Boxwood & Cranberry digital stamp, colored w/markers
- Honeybee - Holiday Cheer paper
- Spellbinders - Labels One die
- Starform - Glitter gold stickers
- Hot off the press - Inside - Acetate border to hold up easel
I realize now that I only made 5 cards instead of the 6 I wanted to, oh well only one behind isn't bad ;)
I am sharing my card today with Peace on earth challenge
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today, hopefully the thoughts of Christmas will help to cool down us all that are going through this HOT streak today, our temps are getting up to 97 with a feels like in the 100's.

They're all so beautiful and your coloring is top notch! I especially love those pretty Christmas bulb cards.
You made some great Christmas cards. I particularly like the ornament image and branch dies. Those are really stunning cards and you colored the image beautifully.
What a lovely collection of Christmas cards you've made. I just love those ornaments with the greens but everything is amazing. Well done.
