What is your favorite Christmas stamp in your collection?
Hi All. I was going thru my Christmas stamps to do cards.
And Wondered what my fave stamp for this season is.
I love the frog with tongue stuck to lightpole from Viva LasVegastamps.
For my cards this year, I used the House Mouse 'Tails of a Bright Noel'. The SU! 'Silent Night' stamp set is also one of my favorite Christmas stamps!!!

My favorite is 'Frosty' from SU. I have used all the stamps in combination with others that I have. This is also one of the first SU stamp sets that I bought. It is probably one of the most used of any of my SU sets.
Dasher has ended up on a lot of my cards this year so far. He looks good so many ways! But of course I have a soft spot for my various Christmas cat stamps too... ;)

I love Nativity Snowmen from The Angel Company.
The set tells the complete story from the shepherds, and the angel, the 3 wisemen, and the stable with Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. The verses are from The King James version, the Gospel of Luke.

Mine is the SU Gingerbread House set....I don't have the sticker on this set which has the name. I tried to look it up and there seems to be another set called Gingerbread House from 2000. Mine is from 2004. Does anyone have the name of the 2004 set? Or are there two with that name? I also LOVE SU's Sending You Cheer. This year I'm using a Cuttlebug folder-Winter Houses, which sportchick (AMber S) sent me as a RAK...That sooo rocked! I'm putting the Santa on it also from Wandering Words...if I can figure that out...maybe embossed in white????

Thanks for the kind words...I have soooo many sets of Christmas it is very very hard to pick one every year. I have THREE dresser drawers full of Christmas sets...YIKES...I also love the TAC Christmas set with the snowmen.. I got that this year too. blessings.
My favorite is 'Frosty' from SU. I have used all the stamps in combination with others that I have. This is also one of the first SU stamp sets that I bought. It is probably one of the most used of any of my SU sets.
Frosty was the first SU set I bought too! I made my first Christmas cards with this set. I still like the way Frosty can be done differently, and the snowflakes and sentiment can be used with other things!
My favorite this year is a Stampendous set of two child-like images of Mary and Joseph kissing the baby Jesus in a manger. I made a very cute card with the Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses designer paper and this image, I just haven't taken a picture of it yet! I am making more this weekend, and will take a picture then!
It's very hard to choose a favorite Christmas stamp/set. I try to use at least 2-3 each season. I recently inked up Frosty but haven't uploaded that design yet. Also planning to use A Beautiful Season which I recently bought on the FSOT forum after wanting it for many years! Plus I have some colored images from Christmas Cardinal (the set that retired in 2005) that didn't get made into cards last year. And I have some patterned paper from a long-ago clearance that goes nicely with the (retired) Woodcut Holly jumbo wheel.
I also love Snowflakes (retired) and wish I owned O Tannenbaum (retired), Serene Snowflakes (current) and Snow Swirled (current).
Rubber Stampede's Santa Collage and The Madona and Child from SU's newborn King set, which is retired. The stamp is dated 2002.

I think I'm going to make my cards with the $1.00 Inkadinkado's this year and make them into shakers with glitter and FlowerSoft. I'm using I/O shaker boxes because they fit the Inka images perfectly.
I have a ton of Christmas stamps and love them. I have Up on the Housetop by SU and Old Fashioned Santa. Star Santa is another of my favorites.

I'm a sucker for Christmas stamps and I only make 10 cards (5 of 2 designs) each year to send out. My favourite image this year is actually a colouring page of and old fashioned Santa Claus I found so I used it as a digi stamp. I also like the Holy Triptych set from SU. I used one of the stamps in the set for 1/2 my cards this year. Here's pictures of my cards for this year. I just finished them today :grin:.
I``ve been loving the inkadinkadoo stamps that are a design within the design ,like the mindscapes stamps,but i have the Holiday Sillhouttes set.i used the reindeer in several variations on this design! the snowman is an extra image i had! Have a great thanksgiving everyone!
have to agree with Late Blossom-can't name a favorite. i have more than a tall Iris cart filled with separate stamps; plus all the SU sets and other sets too.
i am sucker for Christmas stamps, what else can i say!;)
Frosty was the first Stampin up set that I purchased too. However my favourite christmas stamp these days is the pointsettia from Pointsettias and boxwoods from Flourishes. Coming a close second is the new old fashioned santa from Flourishes
Oo, it's tough to pick just one, so I'll list a couple instead:
I LOVE the Stampin' Up Miracle of Christmas & Flaky Friends (both retired) - I think they are stamps that don't 'date'. I love the Elzybells 'Reindeer and Robin' 'cos it's so easy to colour for quick cards. And I love my Just Rite Christmas Stamp Ensemble & Old Fashioned Christmas stampers.

I have this stamp too, actually forgot about so I just dug it out and may have to make some cards with it!!
My favorite is 'Frosty' from SU. I have used all the stamps in combination with others that I have. This is also one of the first SU stamp sets that I bought. It is probably one of the most used of any of my SU sets.
Frosty was also the first set I purchased from SU. I was using the Happy Holidays stamp from that set earlier today.
I've sat and thought about this and I too don't think I can choose a favourite because there are so many Christmas stamps that I do like.
I like a lot of the Penny Black cute stamps, I like religious stamps ( but please not "Jesus is the Reason for the Season") and I really like Barbara Gray's range of "Twas the Night Before Christmas"
Susan, (aka LateBlossom) I am totally with you. Shhhh, you'll hurt the feelings of all the stamps and of course, I have way too many........................but will buy more......even though I haven't used them all...............ok!

I would have to say Snowflake Serenade by PTI. I use it over and over and never seem to get tired of it. It will be a keeper for a long time.
