I Challenged another SCS member to make a 12x12 OSW set of Christmas cards. She took me up on the challenge...
I am now opening it up to anyone who would like to give it a shot!
This Challenge is going to be a mixed OSW. Choose whatever 12x12 DP you would like to use, Then start creating. You can use the templates below, make your own or find another.
You can make whatever variety of cards you would like. B-day, Thank you, Get Well, etc.
If you have been wanting to do a OSW one sheet wonder then here is your CHALLENGE!
You must use a 12x12 sheet of DP, (Designer Paper)
You can use what ever design you would like or even try making your own.
Several have posted on the Template 2 Link wanting to see examples of the cards from my layout. You can see them in my gallery (Kelly's Creations link in siggy). Look for the cards labeled S2S OSW Challenge... they start near the bottom of the page. The DP I used was a cream and red striped (from DCWV I believe).
All of the chip board medallions were from a set of 'tags' from K@ Company that I picked up at Christmas shop in Eureka Springs AR last year. I'll be looking for more of them when I go down next month.
Okay... I've printed off the templates of the other two. I did notice on Template #1 in the gallery it had a link to the original post... but there is a correction so when you go to print out the Word doc she has provided there, make sure you print out the most recent post. It's only a small change but just something to keep in mind.
I used template 1 for the first OSW that I tried. I did change it up a bit, but not much.
Here is the set I did. I have them in my gallery singly, except 2 of them I could not get to load. Looking forward to seeing everyones creations.

It's over under the Everyday Chat list. Quackers was the first thread I ever got involved in. Probably because 3 of the members were close friends of mine when I lived in IL.
This is toooooo much for my brain right now. Many next summer when I have more time.
It's a great idea but right now is not the right time for me.
thanks
Boy, I understand about not getting into anything else right now. If this had been a 'swap' I'd have had to pass until after the first of the year. But I do need to do cards, I'm behind in the Christmas card challenge (we won't discuss how far hehe) and I still nee time to 'play' so this Challenge is perfect!

I love your idea of OSW challenge and posting rather than having to mail! I would love to create for your challenge and post pics no later than November 30!
My adhesive should arrive on Thursday. I write all day Friday. Saturday I'm going to the Laura Ingalls Wilder festival so looks like Sunday will be my creative day this week. I have the Monthly Card swap challenges to catch up on and then the OSW will help catch me up on the Christmas card challenge... So THIS one was a good thing. Thanks for putting it together!
Hi Sheng, It is due to be posted here by Nov 30th... However if you finish before then feel free to post @ any time. We would love to have you play and chat with us...
Definitely think I should take part in this one Well it will in fact be my first swap But sounds like so much fun! Hopefully I can get to a store tomorrow and decide on the DP I want to use.
Cool Elisha, however it is just challenging you to do a OSW... There is no swapping! Just posting.. And I will be giving out prizes. I am not sure for what yet but they will be given
Whoot!!! I needed that today I started my day with 5 texts from staff wanting to know where their autodeposit paychecks were (accountant forgot to send it or put the wrong date or something) and went down hill from there :P
Yeah, I'm joining LOL!! I need to make a bunch anyways for my RMD house
My night did go better! I have a 2 yo niece (her bday was yesterday!!) and visitors from England (honorary "cousins") so my sister had a dinner/bday cake, etc. last night
I kinda was thinking you already had... he he..... I have relatives in England... I want to go back and visit, but it is so expensive!
I am glad your night went better... I am off to go get app's for a new job. Wish me luck and that God will open the right door for me... He know's where he want's me, I just hope I listen..
