I did it! Well, 51 of the 60, anyway. The others were either inside views I decided not to post or else the pics were SOOO bad, LOL... I really am going to do better and not be in such a hurry!
Congrats on getting all those posted. They're beautiful and I left some love here and there in your Christmas album. I hope you posted a link to your album in the CCC12 Christmas card thread.
I don't put a link to my gallery in my signature as it is easy enough to find by clicking on my avatar - one extra step.

I saw your comments, Val, and I really appreciate the kind words!
No I didn't post a link - never thought about it since I really didn't take part in the challenge...
I did not know that clicking on the avatar would take you to your gallery - is that true for everyon or did you "do some magic"? Gee, guess that's easy enough to check, huh? Duh!

Reason: Change wording
On the galleries, I like when people have a link because it opens another window instead of navigating away from the page. Just my preference. 51 cards is a lot!!!

Good point about the link. I know I read how to do it not too long ago, I just can't remember where, LOL!
And you're right - 51 was a lot, then I added more today. But I did get the card I made today posted so I kept my New Years resolution for one day at least

Hey, one day at a time! Way to go!

Who is still waiting to receive their HYCCT prizes? My order from Stamping Bella is being "processed" so I should receive it soon. The holidays slowed things down a bit.
And, who has received HYCCT prizes but hasn't yet posted something made with their winnings? I wanna see what you make with those new goodies!

Oh. Well, that makes sense.
Yes, it works for everyone . I don't know any magic. Although Paula made a good point about the link opening a window - just a bit easier.
Mary (Octoberbabe) posted a card she made with her MFT prize over on the L-O-N-G Prize winners thread. One of her choices was a flower Die-namic, but a different one than the two I ordered. I still have to make a card with the Flower Medley Die-namics.

I haven't heard anything from Xyron, although I did get an email from Lori asking for my address so she can get prize winner information wrapped up.
I've had my goodies from Flourishes for awhile, but haven't had time to take any photos of the products or the few cards I've made using them. There just aren't enough hours in the day.... hopefully I'll get something posted soon.

Me! Lame, lame, lame! I should check out MCC schedule, too. I wanted to get past the holidays first...and they're over.

I heard from Lori 4 weeks ago about a Spellbinder prize, but I'm assuming it got slowed down in the Christmas mail rush. When I get it I was going to gift it onto another Aussie SCS who kindly joined in on a couple of the challenges when I put the word out for participants. She didn't win anything so I'd like her to get something for her efforts.

What a kind thing to do with your prize. I see in a later post that you have received it. Perhaps your friend will let you use it also.

Ditto the red part

I never posted my project here. The main prize I chose from The Rubber Cafe was the A2 Polka Dot dies, along with a few supplies I needed. I made my card for the color (or rather, no color) challenge last week.
Ditto the red part
well ok ditto the second part also but substitute Taylored Expressions for the Flourishes gift...
Im determined I will get it inky this weekend though.
When Taylor posted her sale info she made a note that she was going to be closed for awhile but I got the stuff I ordered during the Shophop today. So maybe your goodies are on the way.
I finally made something with a cut from the Pazzle. I've been reading the book, watching videos and doing tutorials. You can do an amazing amount of things with the software and surprisingly, it's not difficult to work with the software. The part that is difficult is getting the cutting OK. I've been working on that and making notes.
I cut the heart with the pazzle and put the little hearts that were cut from the center up the side.
I am still overwhelmed when I think about winning this. I was thrilled with a set of stamps, this is just so big, it's hard to believe. I don't think I can come up with words to describe my gratitude to Pazzles for their generous prize, to Lydia and all the SCS staffers for their giving of their time and talent. It was my goal to finish all the challenges just because they were there and I hope that I'll be able to do the same this year.
Chris, I have the taylored expressions gift and I have not inked it yet... I am waiting on the Xyron one.
Taylor was very quick with her emails and packing and such. I've just been swamped. but making a dent in my I wanna do pile
got caught up on some FS stuff this afternoon and want to play with the TE stamps this weekend and come up with an idea for my January quota Christmas cards ( this months challenge is no red or green cards) ( which is hard for me) I like red and green and don't burn out on those colors. So, I'm trying to decide if my entire quota has to be non traditional colors of if just one of the cards can get away with it. ( since I do 6 a month and I tend to do more one of a kind cards than sets)

Your card is fantastic Chris! I'm glad you studied, practiced and persevered so you could show us just a taste of what the Pazzle can do. Nice way to use the extra cut out hearts too.

I like red and green for Christmas cards too. But I try to use a wide range of colors throughout the year for my 8 cards (all alike) per month. I haven't started thinking about January Christmas cards yet though. I've got 27 days yet!

You're funny Val. I've made Jan, Feb & April in Christmas cards challenge, people think I'm crazy but I think it's a great idea.

Very cute card Chris. Gosh, I could only imagine on what you get to do on the Pazzle... Looking forward to seeing what you create next.

Okay, me...but I have been doing some practice stamping this evening with my new set. It may be beyond my skill set - not only are they not clear stamps, there is no guide printed on the actual stamp. I have a stamp-a-ma-jig but I haven't had outstanding results using it so far. But my masking seems okay. First time using a mask, too. I'm WAY out of my teeny tiny stamping comfort zone, LOL!

One of my teamies said that on the 25th of each month she makes Christmas cards. Seems like a good idea to me.

There's lots of cuts geared to people who make paper images, without stamping. They're involved, and usually use several different colors paper for each project. some are very cute so I may try them.
I haven't scrap booked in a long time but there's overlay pages that are gorgeous, they look like pages I've purchased at shows.
I found that if I just want to cut out simple shapes that's pretty easy but I really like the doilies and intricate cuts so I'll be working on that for now.
Okay, I'm not sure I'll ever get a project made with my new stamps, but here's a pic of my practice sheet - I guess I need a brick wall stamp next, to actually hang the planter on.

That's a cute basket stamp and your coloring on it is beautiful! You go girl!

Thanks, Val! If you think I can color I should post the bird I dug out of the trash to remind me what NOT to do! I have a thing about messing up backgrounds - big time!

I'm narrowing down my wishlist for Stamping Bella... and still waiting to hear from Xyron. It'll be awhile before I make something. I'll probably have to "pick up" the items in the US when I visit this summer.

How about an embossed brick background, a die cut window and this gorgeous planter? And I'll gladly send you my address so you can send it to me.....teeheee...
