Stamping Challenges / Christmas All Year - May 2023
« Last post by Iring on May 06, 2023, 10:48:57 PM »
Since April showers bring May flowers ...

How about FLORAL Christmas cards this month?  Or foliage.
Poinsettias, holly, wreaths, even palm trees decorated with lights will count.  Ha!  You know I don't count.

Ooh, for extra credit, get your colored pencils out.  I've seen some pretty pencil coloring lately.

I'm looking forward to seeing your cards!  Don't forget to put them in the Christmas All Year album and link them here.  Or we can talk about using the blog ... either way, give us a link!

Wow!  You were busy while I was camping.  Awesome Christmas cards in the gallery! 

I love the discussion about natural light and windows too! 

Heidi you did a great job with the printed paper.  Some smaller, stand alone stamp images can be hard to use, but your layouts and paper make them stand outs!   It's pretty paper, but if you've used most of it and you're sick of it ... toss it and move on to spring.  I had a paper pad that was down to not many sheets, and small pieces and I finally was just done.  It felt kind of good to just toss it!  And believe me, I won't run out of paper and I doubt you will either! 

Your cozy paper is really pretty too Connie, and I like how you used it with the cardinal, and even the printed paper with black snowflakes.  Who'd have thought?  It goes great in that line of paper.

The 4 corner sets all of you made turned out really nice .... I still need to try that again.  The greenery worked really well with that technique, April.  I love the snowflake sets too.  I can't remember having a whole set of snowflake stamps, but I bet I have snowflakes somewhere, even if I mix and match.  Thanks for posting, you gave me lots of ideas! 

I left comments in the gallery.  I was able to get in but now my password is the gobbledy gook one that I was assigned when I couldn't get logged in a few weeks ago and I don't know how to change it!

I have spend the week trying to use up a Modascrap 6x6 paper pack.  I can’t remember the name because I cut up and used the cover sheet but anyway, it is old and you probably can’t still get it anymore.

I have some scraps left I plan to use, but honestly I am ready to move on to some springy cards for now, so who knows what I will make next.

Here is my other set of cards. I wanted to try the greenery stamp with this technique. I loved how it turned out.

I purposely put my table right in front of my window so I would have good lighting, and I can also look up and see what the neighbors are doing, LOL :)

I just put sentiments on my cards

Yes, I have a nice window in my craft room now and I will also have one in the new house. I will also have more light in light fixtures as well.

Here are my cards. I also used a penguin on my snowflake cards. I tried to find something else that would work, but this guy looked a lot better. I am also in the process of making another set of 4 corner Christmas cards. They are not snowflkes, but the stamp I used was just perfect for the technique. When I finish them, I will post them.

April :smile:
