Christmas All Year 2015 - August

Well, I haven't made any Christmas cards yet this month ... but I thought I'd share Jennifer McGuire's video.  I really like what she did with a photo to make her family's Christmas card.  Hmmmm, may do something similar this year if I can choose a photo from our daughter's wedding.

That is clever!  Would be fun for a baby announcement too.

Beautiful cards Heidi!  You have me wanting to check my embossing powders and stamps to see if I have something similar.  I do need to check out that SU stamp set, I'm not familiar with it.  I really like your layouts.

Made my first Christmas for the year.  We are playing with tapes at our craft day and I worked on some ideas of what to do with tapes.  I made two different cards. And one was a Christmas card but I didn't like this tape.  Not as nice as the other glitter tape I have.
Anyway I have one done and before the month is over!  Yea!
I put it in the gallery.

Cindi, I had picked this stamp set up at the thrift store a few weeks ago.  It was $3!  I really liked that it had a nice sentiment for the insides and then 4 images for the outsides.  I think they are Peace, Joy and Love.

Thanks Heidi, for linking Yankee's card and sharing your fab find at the thrift store!  Scooooorrrre! 
Oh, and Jennifer McGuire's card would make a great baby announcement!

Nice job Yankee!  I have a hard time keeping ink or paint on the raised parts of an embossing folder.  Yours turned out really nice!  I bet the glitter tape is even better in person (on the tree). 

I was inspired by Jan's (Far North) ATC swap so before I forgot, I quick typed upSeptember's Christmas All Year challenge.  You can still post here, for today.

I'm cranked through a few more!

I upload this a few days ago, not sure what happened but the image is now blank!?

Hers some gift card holders I made. There isn't a ton of stamping on them, mainly because I wanted to use these stickers. They were really quick and easy to do. No template or anything, I just made them slightly larger than the gift card.

LeighAnn, your gift card holders turned out really cute.  Kudos to you for just winging it!
You have a nice stash of cards ready!

Thanks everyone for linking up your cards!

Can't believe it's September already!  Keep those Christmas cards coming!
