Sorry, I got distracted by Stamptoberfest and forgot to post a Christmas challenge.
As it turns out, I used the fest to get a few Christmas cards done and the theme for the month that I pre-determined back in January happens to be ...
Patterned Paper!
I will give you two choices in prompts :
1. Use patterned paper on your card (see Beth's mini slimline Joy Fold challenge for a good use of patterned paper!)
or
2. Use one of the backgrounds you have in your stash from our many challenges or Zooms or your own play time. You probably noticed I
pulled out a corrugated cardboard background for my Bingo Twist card.
As always, please follow the prompt if you like. If you don't use the prompt please post anyway!
Use the Christmas Cards All Year album in the gallery and post a link here.
Keep the Christmas cards coming! Happy stamping!

Thanks for linking April. Nice job with the printed papers. Doesn't that red, white and black combo look striking?! I think your azalea stamp doubles well as a poinsettia!

Here are my last 3 cards for this month!

I decided to use up some of those half inch pieces left over when using my 6x6 sheets on cards to make up these cards.

Started my Christmas cards with this new stamp I got for my birthday. It’s a fun one, reminds me of the cartoon the Jetsons. Santa flying along. I made five of them in different color combos. The one is my favorite .
I may made more, cause it is almost one layer and very flat. I hate paying extra postage on large mailings!

I went through my backgrounds to see which one I could use and I found these flowers I had tried to watercolor. I saw this girl who just started off with a few dots of paint and then she would make flower petals, well I didn't like the way mine turned out and threw them in my backgrounds. I brought it out and decided to try and make a wreath out of them adding stamped leaves and then a bird to finish it off.

The last of my September cards was pretty easy, I loved this snowman so I had to make a card out of him and slimline to the rescue.

Thanks for playing everyone! Looks like we have no shortage of printed paper! Great cards this month.
Connie, every time I see you use those tiny sentiments, I think I NEED them! Need to put them on a wish list.
Putting up October challenge now.
