Christmas Card Challenge 2012: Christmas Cards

vikkijo · 11-08-2011, 10:36 AM

WOW! November 8th and there are already 25 ladies signed up for 2012!

Aren't there any guys here on SCS that do the Christmas Cards?

Sweetie, I have mailed envies to Australia, Canada and just last month, to Ireland. You go after all the Freebies you can get!

well I went to check out the CCC12 galleries.. it is for a different challenge and a couple of previews for next years Christmas Challenge

O.K. Sign me up for 2 cards a month for now. Once I send out my Christmas cards for this year and see how many I have left, I will alter my amount (or not)

Yes, I figured out the same thing when I went back and looked again. I'm sure if we ask the mods they can fix those ones in there from 2009 with the wrong code on them.

Ok, I'm incredibly new to this but I so want to get my Christmas card making rear in gear a whole lot earlier than I am doing now. Maybe this will be the prodding I need. Sign me up for 6 and I will take it from there. Thanks so much for this opportunity!

Welcome to the group, Terry. Shout if we can help with anything.
As I always tell the group, checking in on a regular basis is a big key in sticking with it. Happy Stamping!

Plain Jane · 11-09-2011, 06:09 PM

Hi there, Terry from Washougal. We are practically neighbors...sort of...maybe! LOL!

scootsv · 11-10-2011, 03:20 PM

Here we go again! Please sign me up for 8 this year. I always do three extra for the local Cards for a Cause and this year ended up with lots of extras so I will cut back by 2. Also that will be easier since I will only use 2 sheets of what ever the main paper will be. Thanks to Vikki jo and Kelly for all you do for us! Merry Christmas, Rita

DragonflyPaperArts · 11-10-2011, 08:44 PM

Hmm... this just might be the kick in the stamping rear I need to get my holiday cards done in time. It's not gonna happen this year - not even if I tried to marathon it... but if I get a head start I should have everything I need for next holiday season. Woohoo!

Oh, I need to give an amount, don't I? Okay, let's say 3 a month. If I find that I'm on a roll and completing more than that... well, that's just a bonus.

raduse · 11-10-2011, 10:25 PM

Sign me up again. Maybe my health will give me a break so I can stay on time next year.

I'll still be doing 3 per month.

I've tried to get my DH to participate, but he swears he can't color between the lines and isn't even going to try.

The turkey!

Thanks for the welcome!

Please don't mind the sparseness of my blog - my stamping and creating life got waylaid by Real Life (and the chaos it brings) over the summer and that included posting on blog. Hoping to get more posted now that things have settled down some.

ROROLEE · 11-11-2011, 09:22 PM

It's a nice way to push myself.

I wanna join and will make 4.

HappiLeaStamppin · 11-13-2011, 06:35 AM

I am definitely in! I love Christmas, it is my favorite time of year and I can't wait to get started.

I can't believe I didn't find this earlier

Thanks so much for having this so anyone can join!!

Ksnurse · 11-13-2011, 09:24 AM

I want to join in for 2012....I always wait till the last minute and then have to rush cuz I like to have extra to give to my Aunt who lives in retirement center on fixed income so she can send out too.....So if I sign up for 6 per month that should get us. If I have enough cards and make tags does that count?

jan31 · 11-13-2011, 09:29 AM

Sign me up again for 4 per month, it's the first time I've had all my cards finished by October, lovely feeling not to be rushing at the last minute

auntangie · 11-13-2011, 09:34 AM

Yes if tags are what you need instead of cards they count too.

So what do I have to do to get freebies

card_creations · 11-13-2011, 12:25 PM

I would love to sign up, I would like to make 10 cards a month

Cook22 · 11-13-2011, 01:03 PM

I'm in again, please.
5 a month again should be sufficient. I'll know when I've addressed this year's, and I'll let you know if it's any different.

mit240z · 11-13-2011, 01:09 PM

Sign me up please!! I'm not sure how many yet but I'm thinking 6 will be good. I haven't even started this years yet and it's already stressing me out!

HappiLeaStamppin · 11-13-2011, 06:10 PM

I signed up earlier and didn't put down for how many.... I will shoot for 4 cards a month and hopefully more

susanbri · 11-14-2011, 10:57 AM

I'd like to sign up again, please. This is such a painless and fun way to get my cards done in plenty of time!!

Have you added to the list, Sheri. And yes, tags count as well. If you need them, then they count

I've added you to the list, Jan. If we were in need of a spokesperson I think we'd be taking to you. Love your sentiment about this challenge.
