I'm working on mine today trying to get them finished. I have 42 to make & have them all cut & stamped except for the inside. I hope to get them done today. So how are yours going?
I woke up around 3:30 am and decided to just get up and get busy (I went to bed early, around 9). I'm almost done with the 10 that I started early today, and I have about that many that I've already finished. I'll probably make another 10 later today (in a similar but slightly different design), after I read the Sunday paper, and be pretty much finished except for a few last minute ones that I'll hand-deliver. Most of mine that need to be mailed will go out tomorrow, along with some gifts.
The end (of holiday card-making for this year) is near, I can almost taste it!

Haven't even started!!!Baked all day yesterday and more to do today....maybe tomorrow I can get some cards done...I've cut my list way down this year....just immediate family and a few close friends.
Only to find that I couldn't find a proper envelope, and when I made an envelope, the bling and Stickling started poking through. So I had to mail using a padded envelope!
i did 45 so far, they are mailed ~ 5 to go and i am done! then onto the nugget tins! LOL. i love stamping, and i have a good mojo going so far, so, it has been hectic and i stamp whenver i can( i work 6 days a week full time), but it is only the 16th and i have 3/4 of the cards done and mailed! WOO HOO!

I was overly ambitious and decided to make all 70+ of my cards this year, starting in November. Then the kids and DH and I had the flu for about two weeks, so I got nothing done. Today, I want to get ALL the cards done. The insides are stamped, the envelopes are addressed, now I just need to cut some more pieces and stamp and assemble the front panels.
I forgot to say me & some friends did almost 200 nugget boxes (the 3 nugget cardstock kind) yesterday. Now they want to do 87 more. Hopefully I will still be in the spirit after that!
I did 82 criss cross cards. They were in the mail December 3. I am surprised because for over half of them my arm was in a sling from surgery! Not bragging just saying what happened. Someday I may get brave enough to put some in a gallery.

Wow I am so impressed with all of you guys doing 60, 70, 80 cards... amazing! I did about 20 total... but they are all detailed with coloring (you can check it out in my gallery), so still took me a decent amount of time. I can't even imagine doing even 50!! I will also be making a few extra Christmas cards to hand out to friends and family (not mailed) and also 25 favors for a Christmas party, so I'm not quite done yet
I got all 68 of mine done while DH was working midnights last week and also my 14 pen pal christmas cards and mailed them out yesterday.....feels good to get them out before christmas and not have to send the "After the Holidays" card again!

I have 70 to make, not counting the ones I know I forgot ;) , I am half done. I can only get about 10 duplicate cards finished in one day. I create one, then make 9 more. I think the first takes almost as long as the 9 do. I now have a couple of pretty good templates that I am using to create cards that are the same style, but different details. That is what the other 35-40 will be. I hope to have them in the mail Wednesday :rolleyes:

Finished and mailed out 80+ this last Wednesday. I've got two more to do then I should be done.
I've got to start earlier next year. I usually start in July at our monthly stamping group (it's a Christmas in July thing). I was still making cards this week.
Mine are finished and mailed. I made somewhere around 50 this year. Now, I have to concentrate on homemade gifts, wrapping and baking. I am SO ready to just relax already!!

Just finished mine today (52). Every year I do this, come up with a time intensive design and start late. I will start early next year..I will start early next year... Ok! Who am I kidding!
anyway, I finished up mine this morning. They're in the envelopes with to and from labels attached as well as stamps. they'll be going postal tomorrow. Not bad considering I started in Oct :-)
