Hi there crafty friends! I'm back with another installment of Get Cracking on Christmas, where my friend Jenn has challenged us to work on our Christmas cards each month throughout the year to build up our stash BEFORE the holidays. You can read all about how this got started here.
This month is extra special as we have a bunch of awesome card makers joining us for a fun blog hop to get cracking on their Christmas cards too! Be sure to hop along and look for the giveaways along the hop stops.
Today, I have used one of my favorite Neat and Tangled sets, Elfs and their Shelves. I think I used the set once when I got it for an annual holiday card event that I teach and never got any more love. I pulled it out today for some quick coloring and a super cute and easy card. If you are hopping along, hop on over to the blog of my sweet friend Libby, she has an awesome card (and an awesome giveaway) for you today)! The full list of stops is below.
GIVEAWAY: Do you love this set as much as I do? Please leave me a comment below and I will pick one lucky winner to receive the stamp set AND the dies to match (and a few other goodies!) I'll pick a winner on Tues, July 24th and post it here. Prize can me mailed to US address only (thanks for understanding) :)
I hope you will be inspired by these posts to create even at least one Christmas card...be sure to share it with us on social media using the hashtag #getcrackingonchristmas
Now it's time to see what all of the other designers have in store for you today! Hop along and make sure to comment along the way to win some fun prizes.
So Cute! I did not buy this set when it came out...attempting to show some restraint. HA! I love the little snowglobe. :)

Oh my goodness, how adorable is this!! Elf (girl-YEAH!!) on a shelf! So fun and festive!!!! Great fun for a blog hop and have 100 cards already done and packed up for the holidays! I started in January each year as to have them made. So really I am starting 2019 next! And just posted an Easter card for next year as well!! Makes it more fun too! Starting early means I don't rush and nothing gets in my way. Extra ones always get used as well. http://beverlyjordan.blogspot.com/2018/07/stampendous-flossing-is-must-card.html
