Here's some inspiration.
Can you believe we are over half way through October? Time is definitely flying! Have you started your Christmas cards yet? Our challenge colors are perfect to get you motivated to get your stash started! Already finished those holiday cards? Then how about using the colors to build your birthday stash? Let's see what the IPC team whipped up!
Amy Tollner features the argyle paper from the Meowy Christmas paper pad and uses the A2 Card Layout die to create her panels. She then adds not 1, not 2, not 3, but 5!, cocktails from the Christmas Cocktails stamp and coordinating die set. What holiday spirit! Cheers!
Claire Lamb creates this classic holiday card featuring the canine duo from the Wreath Pups stamp and coordinating die set. To design her card, she uses the Basic Frames die set with the polka dotted paper from the Christmas Basics paper pad. So much puppy cuteness!
Danni Bindel builds her birthday stash using papers from the Birthday Time paper pad with the Card Layout 4 die. She then uses the Circle Frames die set to create her center panels and adds a birthday sentiment from the Uplifting Wishes stamp set. Happy birthday to you!
Debbie Owens creates a snowy background in Pink using the Snowflake stencil. She then adds the darling tree-trimming felines from the Newton's Christmas Tree stamp set. She then embosses a sentiment from the Snowflake Oval. So much furry cuteness!
Don't forget you now have until October 31, 2025 to get
creative with the the challenge colors:
Holiday Red, Pop of Pink, Evergreen, and Arctic Blue.
