Only 65 To Go...

Yes that's right, only 65 days 'till Christmas Day! Hey don't shoot me, I'm only the messenger lol. Seriously I haven't done a thing about Christmas yet so I thought it was time I made a start!
 I don't normally do batch making as I get really bored doing the same thing, but only 65 days and all that AND PaperArtsy have a new challenge which is to use a stamping platform.
 I love my Tim Holtz platform, for me it means no more spoiled projects where I've miss stamped something. This time however I was going to use it for batch stamping. I've had some backgrounds made for ages from when I was playing with my marbling inks, so I cut them all to size, and chose my stamp set.

 I chose these bold sentiments to go on my colourful backgrounds.

I even stamped the envelopes, all in exactly the same place - thank you Tim!
All stamped and stuck and waiting to be sewn into place.
I love these happy cards, and I shall definitely be making some more. The only problem is Neil has been telling me to do this for years, and I would hate for him to be right (again)!!
As I'm typing this, the sun is blasting through, and it's a beautiful day - just right for making Christmas cards!
Have a very happy weekend and thanks very much for looking x

  1. OMG 65 days!!! Now you've got me thinking that I need to get a move on. Thankfully, I have the TH stamping platform too, which is priceless at this time of year. Fantastic selection of cards Sue x

  2. That design is great for mass production! I too love my stamping platform... as I need all the help I can get! I'm working on something more creative with the platform but alas won't be able to show it at Paper Artsy (in time). xx

  7. Happy cards, indeed! These cards certainly do not look "batch" and I would guess that your secret is safe here! By the way, I love my TH stamping platform, too!

    I have bought some Charity Christmas Cards, so I guess it's a start!

    All the best Jan
