Hello stamping friends!!
I can't believe that today is the last ABC Christmas Challenge of the year!
We made it through the whole alphabet! Let me tell you...I have had so much fun being on this team. It really was easy to get all of my cards finished by doing them throughout the whole year. I only had to make a few extra cards and some weeks I made a card in between challenges. But there wasn't a "mad rush" at the end of the year to finish!! Of course, I still ordered photo cards for the family friends who don't know anything about stamping and only just want to see pictures of my kids!
To celebrate the "Zero" challenge - we are having a "Zero Time Blog Hop"!!
You should have arrived her from Paula! If not, you may want to start at the top of the hop at the ABC Christmas Challenge blog because there is hidden candy along the way!!
There is also a Secret Letter on each stop. Put the letters together to build a phrase.
There are a few things to win:
~ Individual Blog Candy - must enter the challenge and leave a comment on the blog with blog candy (there are a few spots with candy)
~ Simon Says Stamp gift certificate and Stamp Fairy digital stamps - must enter the challenge as well as leave a comment with
Our challenge for this hop is "Z is for Zero Time". Please look over the challenges we had in 2010 (a list is in the sidebar on the challenge blog). You can use any of the challenges from the list. So you can create a card using A is for Angel or O is for Ornament, etc.
But you must enter the challenge in order to win any of the candy or sponsor prizes.
I have 2 cards to share today...
First up is the cutie Milton from Wild Rose Studio...
I used: O is for Ornament, W for Winter Wonderland, and X for Xmas
I also used some Kaisercraft Christmas Carnival DP and Snow pearls.
This next one is using the adorable Ruffles from Helz Cuppleditch for Stampavie...
I used challenges: P is for Present, Q is for Quick and Easy, and X is for Xmas.
This was a super easy card to make - a colored image, a piece of DP and done!
My "secret" blog hop letter is: i
The next stop on the hop is the very talented Lorraine!
PS I have both of these stamps, along with all Christmas designs, on sale in the Stamp and Create store.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping!!
