CHRISTMAS/HANUKKAH 2012: Just a Few Cards a Month challenge!

[lilyinkpad]

I loved doing this. I got done early and quit making them in October! I will do so again!

[lilyinkpad]

Yes, it would, but then I have to deal with the stress of getting them done every month. I was in that monthly swap last spring and summer and did not like the pressure on top of the pressure in this challenge. We'll have to see how the rest of the week goes.

If you miss a month, no biggie. Just you aren't in that drawing. We'd forgive you. It's just a way to try to be accountable. Cindy isn't that mean

Pressure sucks! I get that! I'll be hoping you have a GREAT week so you will join us! I LOVE seeing what you create each month! (PS I was just joking, I hope you understood that!)

I'm up for a challenge - 4 cards in 2 days and I won't be home for hours yet.....do I post a link to my blog here? Or is there a specific gallery we upload to?

[lilyinkpad]

You just post them here as a thumbnail or a link to the gallery.

[Katherine]

I'm up for the challenge - please add me! I might even put these in addressed envies with stamps so they are ready to go right after Thanksgiving!!

[CindyE]

Yippee, Katherine, glad you are joining us! I've got you added to the chart.

[Katherine]

Oops I see that went through twice - my computer died in the middle of my first request - anyway - got 4 done!

Card #2 and #3

I seem to be having trouble uploading the other 2, but I'll try again later!

EEK - last day of the month. Made four of this card. (gallery photo link)

Here is card #1 and #4 cards that I couldn't seem to upload for some reason yesterday!

[Packer Fan]

This is a group shot of the cards that I made in January. These were all left overs from workshops and classes.

All these cards have been on my blog if you are in need of any info, you can go there or just ask! They aren't too difficult though!

Once again I'm just under the wire! One day I hope to be ahead of the game. Not sure that's going to be anytime soon though!

[CindyE]

And, we're off and running!!!

Don't worry, Shelley, I'm even later-just under the wire for me, too.



And here is the updated chart - thanks for participating, ladies!!!

[Packer Fan]

All the cards that have been shared are great! So glad that everyone has joined us in making these cards!

[CindyE]

Me, too!

Just a reminder - February is a short month (even with the extra day this year), so it will be March before you know it! Better get started on your February cards!

[Packer Fan]

On my list of many things to get done! Here's hoping there is enough hours in the 29 days of this month but for some reason I doubt it!

I'm here to grovel. I'll take those 30 lashes with a dead Christmas tree branch. Actually that thought, ouch! I just couldn't get to these cards so I will do 10 in February, at some time. ayii I've been in the spin cycle for the past week. Too much going on. The day I planned to stamp I had 6 large boxes on my porch to sort so customers could pick up SAB orders. I didn't plan that in my week! Now I'm signed up for the Milwaukee Regional and lots events in between now and then. It'll die down in April. lol

Now that I've started my monthly Christmas Card club, I'll be getting my cards done on time! Here are my cards for February, which are a direct CASE of something I saw on Pinterest (LOVE that Pinterest!!!).

Adriana, those are GORGEOUS! Did you use the Mini Glue Dots with the red glitter, or are those punched from Glimmer Paper? (Now off to "Pin" it!)

Thank you! They are cased from something I saw in a magazine combined with something I saw on the net. I don't remember who shared it, but it was similar to this but just stamped. The two ideas came together nicely!

The red dots are actually generous dots of the red Dazzling Details. But the glue dots idea is brilliant!

Love those cards Adriana and Cindy. I'm so glad I got my February cards done last month because this month has been crazy.

ETA: Both my boys birthdays are in February and this was the year they both got parties. Is it March yet?

TWO MORE DAYS to get your cards done, ladies!!!
