- The Design Team Hostess will pick one project of their choice.
- The Prize Winner and the Design Team Hostess Pick will be invited back as future Guest Designers.
- The monthly hostess may add an OPTIONAL manufacturer or shop. Please remember that it will always be an OPTIONAL element to your card design.
- Link up a newly created Christmas/Holiday themed card with Coffee, Tea and/or Cocoa. We no longer have monthly themes. Cards still have to have a Christmas/Holiday theme. Remember to use Coffee, Tea and or Cocoa too!
- Winners and Special Mentions will post on the last day of the month at 4 am pacific.
Let’s get to this month’s challenge:
- December 1 at 4 am pacific – December 25 at 11:55 pm pacific
- Design Team Hostess: Mary Reiner
- Optional Shop: Simon Says Stamp
- Sponsored Prize by Super Sponsor: $25 gift card to Simon Says Stamp
Here’s how I was inspired:
My project features these products by Simon Says Stamp:
- Festive Merriment | stamps + dies
- Snowflake | die + stencil
- Birthday Coffee | die
- Stitched Circles | dies
I used a panel of paper from Miss Kate’s ‘Tis the Season 6×6. I went a bit crazy with all the stamping so that the Birthday Coffee Mug is a bit buried, but it’s there!
I can’t wait to see how my teamies and the Guest designers were inspired, check out the post HERE.
