My 2010 Christmas cardsGood evening all,I am sorry more Christmas cards,but if I am going to get them all made before Christmas I need to start now.I usually need around 125 cards and I don't want to be stressed this year getting them finished,so I am going to try and do 5 cards every fortnight.So if you want to join me then please do and leave a link in the comments so I can see your cards,simple is best and do 5 cards either all the same or all different.......your choice.If you have trouble getting your Christmas cards done every year like I do, then this is the way to go.This image is a free Dustin pike image and you can see his digi store here, my daughter originally asked me to print these so she could make Christmas cards for the boys in her class and I printed snowmen for the girls.Well, she didn't end up making them so I am using these images so they don't sit on my desk for a year.I will be keeping my bulk Christmas cards simple and am only going to make them in lots of 5,so I don't get bored....lol....Thanks for stopping by and for the encouraging comments you all leave.

Wow - well done you Cheryl! What a great way to start 2010 - I think I may join you! I'm finding it hard to start on spring cards when it's -24oc outside and snowing!! So bring on those snowmen!

Great idea to get your cards made early. They are darling.
This is a good Idea, Although I managed all mine, I like Christmas at Christmas. Looking forward to spring now and some sun and all the new plants (you don't have to worry about this though summer in Oz isn't it.
Also love your LO this is one of my 'Have to do more of' this year scrapping I love it and I really would love to get more of my 12 x 12 done of my Grand son
Have a wonderful happy healthy New Year it's great making new friend ships

Great cards. I have a couple of these already printed out. I just haven't been able to think how to use them on my cards. I might have to join you in this endeaver (sp) so I am not rushing at the last minute to get them done, and I might even be able to get the ones I want done for OWH.
oh hun these are all gorjus good on you getting all these ready,I do not have that many to send so will leave mine till later in the year hugs cheryl xx
These are just awesome.. Ive been thinking I need to do this same thing. get them done early and not at the last min...Very lovely work..
Hugs, Linda

Hi Cheryl,
What a brilliant idea. I had intended to start early myself but I am not in the mood for Christmas cards at the minute so I may join you later. These are first class.

Do not feel sorry for showing more Christmas cards Cheryl. I'm in the same boat. I think it's a marvellous idea and that's what is appearing on my blog too for a little while. lol
A great idea Cheryl...I shall enjoy seeing your creations. Love the papers and colours you have used on these cards.
Hi dear,as always your blog so wonderful...just want to wish you a wonderful new year...hugs..Laura.
Well to think you were so far behind in 2009 and look at you now, steaming ahead in 2010. Looks like 2010 will be an organised and well prepared year for you Cheryl.
I only need 40 so maybe I could do 1 to your 5? Love these ones you've started and your bows look great. I've seen this Dunstin Pike image and he looks great coloured! Well done.

These are very pretty!
Happy New Year!

Cheryl i love that image, I may have to go and search the freebies of Dustin.
The papers you used are lovely, i know you are saying these are simple but they look fantastic.
Your xmas this year is going to be "stress free" in terms of xmas cards!
Well done!
LOL Awesome Cheryl!!!
Hey you should have a look at a friends blog challenge site if you already doing Xmas cards:

You're inspirational Cheryl... I need to follow suit! I barely gave any Christmas cards this year as I was just too disorganised!!
These cards are SUPER!!
What a great idea!! These cards are soo gorgeous!

Once again I'm playing catch up - and Christmas is over - LOL. LOVE these - think I need to be doing this too!
Your scrapbook page is AMAZING too - I need to try my hand at a few pages this year and try and improve!
xXx
Cheryl, you continue to amaze me with your enthusiasm, motivation and progress! I am always left wondering how you do it!?
I love your Chrissie cards and your scarpbook page...I only wish I was as organised as you!

Well, look at you!! Way to get a jump on things! These are fabulous Cheryl! xx
Wowzers Cheryl! You'll for sure be ready when Christmas comes again!! I am going to be making one Christmas card per week like I did last year and I really ended up with more than I needed. =)
Hugs

Brilliant idea Cheryl...and looks as tho u have started a revolution with the idea!!! The cards are too cute-to-boot. I have bookmarked the digi image place....as I haven't used one as yet...but nice to know I have a place to start. So ta for that. The colouring is (again)awesome. I have to build my stash cards first...but may join you on the Chrissy card roundabout soon. ooxx
These are Gorgeous Cheryl!!..I never get tired of seeing Xmas cards...I'm hoping to get some done soon too...and get a head start for next year..I actually had to buy them this year..lol....Hugs, Ila
Wow I thought I started my Christmas cards early, but you beat me! :) Way to start them, these are super cute! Mine were all originals last year, but I think I'll do up 5 at a time this year, good idea! Happy New Year! ~Hugs
Oh girl, you are good!! I should do the same!! Very smart. They are darling!! Love your images and papers. It is a perfect time to do them when it is still freezing and snowing outside.
hugs,
Chris
Your cards are great! Love Dustin Pike stuff, and you use it beautifully. I'm working on Christmas cards too, so glad to see I'm not the only one!
