Hey Jami, put me on the list too please! Don't know why I didn't do this sooner. I need to make about 30 cards, so start me in Sept and done Nov. This sounds like fun! My DH will love it. I get so stressed making them last minute every year.
Just browsing through the site and came across this and what a great idea. Please add me to your list to start in August. I'm sure I can find time to begin xmas cards and have 10 (or more) completed by months end. Thanks in advance for the motivational reminders via email to get the job done each month. Sometimes I think this is all I need to get myself down to my stamp room (the room I just had to have) and stamping more often. I can't wait to post my first batch. Thanks again for a great idea! ;)

do to unforseen circumstanses I have to drop from this wonderful activity...there is just too much chaos here right now for me to be able to make any cards...still unpacking, might be having extended family come stay for unknown amount of time...so much chaos :(
Can I still participate in this? I need about 35 cards. So I want to get 12 each month made. Is that okay? (Don't want to do any in December. Too busy)

Well, not sure if you're letting me participate, since no one responded, but I made my 12 cards on Friday, September 30. Just finished up my October cards, 12 of those. I'm on a roll!
At the rate I'm going, I'll probably habve November's done soon as well! lol

Okay, I know I haven't posted here since June or July, but I have finally caught up & then some. I just posted 11 cards to my gallery so go check them out!!
I know, it's mid-October! I just saw this "club" and think it may JUST be the thing to help me make my Christmas cards! The last 3 years I have not completed what I needed for the holidays! I just got my set in this week and am ready to begin. I figure 15 a month will do it. Thanks!!
Not sure if there was just an oversight or I don't have the newest update...wanted to make sure I'm on the list...Got all but 5 cards done in my personal goal. Will make those 5 and some TYs this month
Hello,
I know I am really behind, but I am trying to catch up. I did this card today and decided to go and do another 9 more of the same I liked it so much. This will catch me up for the September challenge. Thanks for looking!

I joined a couple of months late, and got off to a good start. Then I flaked. But.....I'm done. I finished all 100 Christmas cards in the middle of October. I have some good excuses, like being back in the US for 2 months away from my stamping stuff. I also have some not good excuses. Oh well, I'm done now! Now I'll make 2 months of Thank-You cards.
Would it be possible to join your Christmas challenge and post the cards that I have completed. I've done 12 each of 4 design. I've never joined any of the challenges before but have been very busy stamping on my own. I was ready to post my Christmas cards to the gallery and was looking to see if there was a place to put them when I saw your Christmas cards challenge post.
Is there a set # of cards that we must complete to meet this challenge? If it's too late to add me to the list, I well understand.
JMAZZ and Berstamper. I will update the list tonight and add both of your names (late for work right now). Happy to have you. The challenge was for 10 cards per month for as many months as you wanted. November is the last month since the point is not to be working on Christmas cards at the last minute. I will post an update regarding prize drawings within the next day or so. Go ahead and upload your stuff!
I don't know which thread I should post to, so I am copying my post from the other thread here too.
Thanks!
I am behind in updating for this challenge. I actually haven't stamped much, since July - I have been in a slump. So everything I have stamped - has been for my stamp clubs. Luckily, I cut extra this past month and had enough to use for the challenge.
I have quite a bit of catching up to do. I am nowhere near my goal and I was hoping to not have to stamp them in December. Guess I better get crackin'!! ;)

We are coming to the end of this challenge! Deadline to catch up and post finished cards is Sunday November 27th. The goal here was to not have to stamp Christmas cards in December.
Also we are still looking for prize donations for the drawings. If you have not yet contributed a prize you must get it in my mailbox by Wednesday November 23rd!!! I am on the RAK list (in the "S"s ) or you can PM me for my address. Prize items can be hand stamped or embellishments or whatever. They do not need to be holiday-themed or SU products. Just keep them small and lightweight with a value of $1 to $3. I am putting together 2 prize "baskets". 2 winners will be drawn from everyone who participated in the challenge (whether or not you sent in prizes). Shelley will draw names and post them Saturday December 3rd (this gives her time to get the spreadsheet updated first).
Is anyone interested in taking over and running this challenge in 2006? There needs to be a team of 2 or 3 people who can work together via e-mail and PM. I can give you all the info you will need to get started on January 1. Please let me know if you'd be willing to be a Challenge Coordinator. It is a one-year committment and Shelley and I are done after the drawing. Thanks!!
We're in the HOME STRETCH Ladies!!!!! Let's get those cards done!
I know it's not even Christmas yet, but I'm planning ahead.....(organizer that I am!).
