Today’s WCMD challenge is to create a card that we LOVE to send! Me…. I think my all time favourite cards to send out are Christmas cards. Yes… I know it’s only October but Alberta is already celebrating winter… we received 5 inches of snow the other day! Craziness right?!?!
So I chose to make a few brand new Christmas cards to share with you today.
First off, I chose to make a relatively easy card first featuring the sweet little chickadee image from the “Tweet Tidings” stamp set released last year.
Next I went a wee bit more complicated with a fun interactive sentiment card. I used the Lawn Fawn’s new Reveal Wheel die to create this little fella. On the front I have that adorable little snowman from the “Snow Kissed” stamp set.
And lastly, I went even more interactive and made a Double Slider card. This unsuspectingly little square features the little images of the “Cozy Cupfuls” stamp collection.
When you pull on the two tab openings, you reveal even more images and fun sentiments! I just love playing with cards like these.
In addition to sharing some fun cards today, we also have a great Power Poppy Shop COUPON to share.
Now…

I love all of your cards. Really pretty.
wow! Amazing cards. Love all of them 💕
These are so beautiful! Love the interactive snowman. So cute and the birds are beautiful. Great job!
Wintertime cups is my favorite. Awesome coloring.
You have brought winter to our homes with your cards..much needed when we are experiencing October heat!!I loved all I of them specially the interactive cards my favorite.
Nooo! Not snow already ?!? Your cards are just beautiful. Love that snowman! Thanks for sharing :)
Wonderful winter inspirations! Love the Double slider card a lot!!
I got the chills just hearing you already have snow! Love all your shares.
Beautiful Christmas cards.
Your cards are all just AWEmazing beautiful. LOVE the Cardinals (they're my fave type of birdie). Love all the details you put into your cards.
I can't imagine cold weather, let alone so much snow already (well, I do live in So. Florida where it's still stinkin' hot!). lol
Your cards are beautiful! The teacup with cardinals is my favorite! So tweet! <3
Your cards are stunning!
What is so amazing about these Christmas cards is that I think they would be sent out as a winter "hello" card too. Love the versatility so these stamps.
Ally, I would be thrilled to receive any one of these three cards! So pretty!
I'm so jealous about the snow!! Here in Alaska we are having record warm temps for this time of the year and I'm so depressed about it. This time last year we had light snow :(
Your cards are fabulous!! The interactive cards are too cool!
Very beautiful cards. I most like the card with the snowman. Wonderful idea!
These cards are all so sweet, Ally. Christmas cards are also my favourite cards to make, even though we don't see snow here, except on the tops of the mountains here on Crete. Right now, we're still enjoying day temperatures up to 25 °C. The tourist season ends at the end of October.
Fabulous cards Alison, so clever to make two interactive.. the slider one is amazing, happy WCMD
Great Christmas card! Happy WCMD 2018!!!
Love your samples! The birds are my favorites, but the one with changing sentiments brings me back to childhood memories!!
Oh my goodness, these are all spectacular!
Beautiful cards! I really love that double slider card!

What I like the best out of all your pretty cards is the top one with the single bird chirping away. Seeing the flowing musical notes near the beak is so wonderful. I've never seen any other card like this.
beautiful cards and happy card making day
Love all your cards. The bird is so sweet and I love snowmen.
Your cards are just lovely, Ally! So good to have some Christmas cards put away. Love all the birds! So clever with the colourful backgrounds really showing off the cute images! Thanks so much for the inspiration.
