Thanks, Ann, for hosting the CCC26 (Christmas Card Challenge) again this year.
Your "E" themes are great. I may even be able to follow them each month this year.
I plan to make 6 cards each month.
Happy Stampin' & Happy Holidays to all at SCS.
I still have a pretty big stash, I did mail out more than normal but, I was also asked if I would start participating in a craft fair again... ( and that one is a 3 day deal) but, as much as I like meeting people who love paper crafts at this thing the idea of 3 days is daunting and I have not committed to it but, I am thinking in the back of my mind maybe I should join you all again and build the stash just in case. ( my thought is maybe one one day sale somewhere ha ha) :mrgreen: so I will say 4 cards a month (again) it was a good number for me.
I would like to join the 2026 Challenge. I skipped last year because I already had too many cards. I kept making them, anyways. So this year I thought I might as well join since I love Christmas cards so much and really enjoy the group. I will plan on three cards a month.
Ann, you aced the E's! With no Donuts, too! hahaha I hope you saw I finally did do an actual card with donuts, just for you. :-) I think it might have been the only one.
Anyway, I send approx. 60 cards each year so I have no idea how many I'll do each month but hoping for 6 a month to be done by Halloween???
Happy New Year to everyone!
xox,
Aimeslee
WOW I wondered how you'd come up with enough E's. Great list.
plan is 6 a month as usual. I ended up with 2 dozen to donate to the veterans homes in 2025.
I am ahead of my needs, but I still probably will make a few more.
Hilarious the donut conversation continues.
It was actually my husband that started that topic. Every time i ask him for an idea his answer is always DONUTS.
If the verder trucks come around to our small towns he will do a U tuen and go back to look for the mini donut trucks. He's an addict. Thankfully he';s so gtall or he could pass as Santa. HAHA
I bought a mini donut pan and made some for him a few different flavors even, yo lknow what he said to me??
Nah, there aren't the same. UGH
I'm not getting as many Christmas cards made as I'd like to. I've been changing up some sections of my garden so that's been keeping me busy the last couple of months. And I don't always get a card done using the optional monthly theme (but might backtrack and do some of them).

Good morning everyone!
that's funny Ann, I follow a woman on Facebook, her handle is "stamping before anything else"
Craftroom time is for therapy.
But so is my yard work and caring for all of my birds. 3 geese and 39 chickens.
Yes, I know that makes me a chicken tender. lol
Speaking of family time though.
I thought last weekend was Clint's gramas 94 birthday, but its this Sunday.
We're going over to MIL house for a small gathering.
Gramas has 11 kids so the big gatherings are usually at the old farm, but she sold the farm to one of her daughters and it's not available this month.
I like small though.
That's a ton of cousins and gets a bit chaotic.
I have just the image in mind for June theme.
Back later
Chickens are also my therapy, when they aren't stressing me out losing their babies.
they arent even the size of a shot glass, so my grass is always taller than them but the mamas insist on going through the flower bed, losing kids along the way. So I go play Marco Polo. Only its come here babies, peep peep .
LOL
