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.
What is yours?

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!!!

I'm loving my Stampendous Changito Monkey "Bless your Little Hearth" stamp. I LOVE to color and this is a great one for that.

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...  __________________ Lindsey

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????

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! __________________

Sorry, but I can't pick a favorite Christmas stamp. All the other Christmas stamps might hear about it and feel sad!

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).
Fun question!
Happy Crafting!

Rubber Stampede's Santa Collage and The Madona and Child from SU's newborn King set, which is retired. The stamp is dated 2002.

Whichever one I am using at the moment.
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 . |

I'd have to say the Santa Collage is probably one of my favorites, though I've not used him this year -- yet.

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
Love those stamps

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'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"

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.
