Celebrating Your Traditions

We always love seeing your gorgeous cards, JINGLE BELLES, and this week we also enjoyed hearing the wonderful stories behind them. Here are a few entries that particularly charmed us on both counts!


Recalls her childhood love of ice skating in a card that is a master class in diecutting, detailing and beautiful design!


Commemorates her childhood memories of hearing Father Christmas delivering her gifts with this charming and delightful card!



Reminds us that the true purpose of tradition is to make the holidays happy and comfortable for everyone, with cards (and an AWESOME blog post!) which combine the old and the new perfectly! 

Many thanks to everyone who participated, and especially to the lovely Marie Bingaman for coming along and suggesting such a wonderful idea. We'll be back at midnight with a timely new prompt we hope will inspire you!

how sweet of you to have picked out my Father Christmas - and I AM hoping he will find me again this year!

congrats to the other two highlighted cards - really gorgeous! So many lovely cards this prompt, how on earth do you both manage to pick out cards to highlight?!?
