Wow! You have outdone yourself this week! They’re all fabulous!
I plan to send out Christmas cards again this year, just had my second spinal fusion 3 1/2 weeks ago so I started some of the components before the surgery, but I was limited in what I was able to do even then. My awesome husband even helps me out with die cutting when I need him, he’s a keeper :) I also bought the components to do tags for gifts this year. Our gift exchange list has gone down in the past couple of years for various reasons so I feel like I could do the tags without a problem. I’m also tempted to so some Plush Dies this year. I bought several last year, but never got around to make them. The only issue is my husband packed all of my floss, ugh!! We are moving into a new house in January or February so we have been packing up so things and he packed my floss. So the Plush Dies might have to wait until next year :)
Heidi, I am so excited, can’t wait to receive the Limited Edition kit, I love the traditional Santa and can’t wait to color him.
I love Simon Says Stamp! Off to the hop …
Great kit can’t wait till it arrives, Right now I am coloring a bunch of images for the 30 day color challenge, I HOPE to use them to make cards and tags. Fingers crossed that happens!
Making all my Christmas gifts this year! Blankets and bags and Christmas cards!
My holiday crafting is mostly Christmas cards, but I do make handmade tags for all of the gifts given in my family. It’s a lot of work, but it’s a chance to use a lot of stamp sets that I haven’t gotten to make cards with yet. Tags are quicker and easier!
Love your site! I mostly do Christmas Cards. I also do Christmas Gift tags which I gift to my friends. I particularly like making the tags as they are small and go quick and anything Christmas goes! Enjoyed stopping here first on the blog hop! Thank you!
I love hops; they are so inspiring. For my holiday crafting I have created gift card holders, Christmas cards, and holiday place holders for our dinner table.
This is amping me up for Christmas!!
I mostly do Christmas cards and tags, but I do handmade gifts too.
Just made 20 Christmas cards today and plan to make more tomorrow. Thanks for all the inspiration and fun products.
I would love to make some Christmas cards with the Christmas Town set. So cute!
I love to make cards, wreaths and scrapbooking. I like to make photo gifts for my family.
Every year I come up with three or four different Christmas card designs and then make about 20 of each design. These are the cards that are sent out. My husband, daughters and mother all get unique cards made just for them.
My holiday crafting is focused on lots of tags. A tag for my cookie trays, gift tags and Christmas Eve place cards with tags!
I love making cards, specially Christmas cards, I have family members that are very sweet and display all the ones I have giving them through the years on their living rooms, that is very special to me! I wish I could find the limited edition set, it is sold out! :(
Working on Christmas cards. Was ahead and now behind. Stained glass nativity scene with Copics in an ornament shape on glossy paper with gold foil die cut sentiment.
Love SSS, you make stamping so much fun!
I make tags, gift card holders and cards for Christmas and sometimes stamp my own wrapping paper.
I just love SSS and always have a long wish list even though I order when I can! Thanks so much for the blog hop and the chance to win!!! You are a fabulous company!
I usually make my Christmas cards, but not sure if I will be able to this year. I had surgery on my left elbow on the 11/14 and it has stopped me from doing any papercrafting of any type.
I just started on tags and hoping to make cards this year. Just started back to stamping a few months ago..love it!
Have made Christmas cards so far and plan on making more. Some homemade gifts will be made. I usually do a cookie gingerbread house but would like to make a paper craft house this year if I have time.
I make Christmas cards for family and friends every year. I’m excited to use my Simon Says Stamps Winter Flowers stamp this year!
I’m currently making some Christmas cards and I can’t wait to get my kit! The Santa stamp will be perfect for the card I’m making for my niece!
Enjoyed hop. There is a problem with the link you have for Tim Holtz. Was able to get to TH blog since I know it but your link does not work.

I’m making Christmas cards to send out – various designs. So far I’ve made 44 or so – only 31 more to go!
Thanks for another fun blog hop! I hope to get some gift tags made.
I’m making cards, cards & more cards! I’m also making bookmarks to add to my club friends Christmas gifts. I’m using lots of SSS products, of course!
I am making all of my Christmas cards shin this year. I have been saving old sheet music all year and I am incorporating them on my cards. I also will be making all of my gifts tags again.
Love this kit and I just ordered mine. I make 40-60 holiday cards each year! It’s my favorite card to make.
Oh so fun … these cards were amazing ! Off to see the rest…
It’s a busy crafting month with not enough hours and so many ideas flying around in my head. Making cards and gift bags now.
I am ready to hop!!!
I’m making cards for the holidays. Maybe I’ll make some small quilted gifts too.
My holiday crafting involves making Christmas cards , I make my own table decorations from flower stems and some paper and bead accents and I also make my own wreath and this outdoor urn arrangements. I also bake a lot of seasonal treats. I really love the holidays and making things homemade just makes it more special.
What a fun hop! Loved all the christmasy creations. I loveeee the vintage santa!
Cheers

I try to do something a little different each year. This year I am doing “Grow Your Own Salsa” kits for our adult children with gardens. And I am doing make your own sundae kits for all our kids and grandkids. And of course making Christmas cards for friends and family. Busy as an elf at this time of year but I love every minute of it!
I am making holiday cards this year. I make different cards for everyone, I can’t do the same card over & over, it bores me to tears!! What a fab kit you guys put together :)
Christmas cards right now. Hopefully I will get a chance to make some Christmas decorations.
Thanks for a chance to win! Love to make Christmas cards!
SSS is always so generous with prizes! I love making Christmas cards!!
You guys are the best! I’m always excited to see what your up to and offering us! I love all the pretty Christmas inspiration! I’m making 150 tags for our church volunteers…wish me luck!
I just finished handmaking about 75 Christmas cards to send out this year!
I’ve just started making my Christmas cards! A little behind but hopefully I can get a bunch done!
My holiday crafting has mostly to do with baking. I decorate awesome sugar cookies :). I also make cards for select crafty friends who appreciate the effort during the busy holiday season…
I haven’t made many cards but do make journals…and may have to get into cards, they’re awesome and who wouldn’t want to receive one of these.
Love it!!!!
I always find wonderful inspiration here! For my holidays I make our Christmas cards. This is the first year I will mass produce the same design. But I’ll still make a few one-of-a-kind cards for special family.
The blog hop was awesome! Loved all the cards and creations. SSS has the best blog hops!!
