Almost all my holiday cards (ever) have had snowflakes on them (usually the retired Snowflakes set or the also retired Snow Flurries set).
This year I plan to use Keep Christmas but will probably also use Frosty (always wanted it and finally got it when it was on the retiring list). Almost all of the cards I make (50-60 most years) are different so I find it hard to use just one set (not surprising since I find it hard to use just one design).
I'm thinking either Snow Swirled or A Wish For Peace. I've made a prototype of each (A Wish For Peace is in my gallery) but I think the Wish one would be a lot more time consuming not to mention costly paper wise. I haven't uploaded my Snow Swirled one yet since I'm still trying to figure out how to dress it up or if I wanna change it.

Season of Joy even though I don't have it (it's on it way though, yay!). Out of the ones that I have, probably Peace To the World, love the little lion and lamb....and out of the catty, Snow Swirled...hope to get that one soon!

I went Christmas set crazy this year and bought several sets. But I normally just make one design for my 70 or so cards. This year, I used the retired set Peace On Earth. I was just really drawn to the idea of this set. I did a gatefold card that turned out pretty well for a card that can't be too complex as it is mass-produced. I will post a picture in my gallery later today if you want to look.
This year I'm using A Cardinal Christmas (the new Holiday Mini set) I love the cardinals in the winter and living in Ohio , where the cardinal is our state bird, I thought it was especially appropriate to use this year.
If I could only do one, I think it would be Snow Swirled. I can mass produce very elegant cards with navy shimmer CS and silver embossing powder fairly quickly. The others require coloring which takes me more time.
hmmmmm...this would be impossible for me. Since I literally make a few thousand xmas cards I would go nuts...I do love Peaceful wishes and lots of the dollar stamps......and Walmart stamps...etc...
blessings.
Lovely as a Tree. I have seen some very beautiful cards made with that set.
I need to put it on my Christmas list.

For SU I would choose Snow Swirled, but my all time favorite right now is Inkadinkado Christmas Silhouettes. I did the reindeer embossed in gold on champagne shimmer cs and the angel with the Merry Christmas Sentiment embossed in silver on navy.
