  4. I looove this set! So excited to get it in a few days (just ordered it).
    My favorite tradition is baking and decorating cookies with my mother and sister 🙂

  7. You've got me planning for Christmas in September! Growing up we always went to Wimpy to have lunch then go to the local park to play. This year I'll do the same for my kids God willing. It's my birthday today, happy birthday to me. 🙂

  10. Another great day full of inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing!
    My favourite holiday tradition is decorating with all my family the Christmas tree on December 8. For Catholic Christians is one of the most important holiday and it starts officially the Christmas holidays here in Italy. I love also during Christmas time baking and decorating biscuits and other traditional cakes like Panettone and Pandoro.

  11. Such an amazing stamp set. The images are so cute. The favorite holiday tradition is decorating our Christmas tree with handmade ornaments. When I was a little child, the tradition was to fast until the Christmas dinner, so we can see a gold pig 🙂

  20. Love all the cute scenes you can create with the Cheery Christmas set and how it coordinates with Toboggan Together! One of our Christmas traditions is having a Christmas breakfast and then opening our gifts!

  23. These are all soooo gorgeous! The cutest stamps! My favourite Christmas tradition is opening our main presents in the afternoon after lunch with just little stocking presents in the morning. It makes the whole day fun and exciting! xxx

  28. Adorable … these fabulous projects just have me smiling all over my face! Favourite Christmas tradition … midnight mass with the laying of the infant Jesus in the manger … the reason for the season! Anita 🙂

  36. I love this set and toboggan together!! They are just too adorable!! One of my favorite holiday traditions is cooking a big breakfast Christmas morning and then making lots if finger foods and candies for lunch and dinner!

  41. So many cute ideas, so little time. What's a crafter to do… One of my favorite holiday traditions is that we make a homemade ornament for our Xmas tree every year. We have a lot of fun doing this together and it's fun to see the kids crafting talent evolve as they get older. They are always curious what we will be making this year. My tree is gorgeous!

  44. Love those cute animals! My favorite Christmas tradition would be decorating the tree with my family. The excitement of the holiday is fresh and it looks great!

  46. I think this set is my FAVORITE of the entire release (and this is a pretty spectacular release). Those critters are so sweet,I love them all. And I adore each and every one of your talented teams BEAUTIFUL creations in this post – I am so inspired! I want to recreate each and every one! MY favorite holiday tradition is decorating my tiny tree while playing holiday music in the background… though I also love baking cookies for the neighbors and packaging them up all pretty for a little holiday elfing around the neighborhood, I love to spread good cheer! Thanks for so many chances to win your adorable supplies!

  47. Oh my! I have so been looking forward to this blogpost and video! It's fantastic! I cannot choose my favorite tradition, I have too many, all equally important. But one tradition aboit 50 % of all Swedes do is watch a Donald Duck special at 3 pm on Christmas Eve (that's the day we celebrate). It's been on that exact day, time and channel since 1972. I haven't missed it for 36 years.

  48. Aww!! love this set and the things you can add to liven up the personality of the animals. This is definitely on my wish list!!

    A favorite tradition is picking up our wreaths from a local tree farm the very first weekend they are open. We usually end up picking one big wreath and having them make two smaller ones on the spot to complement the larger one.

  49. Love these stamps! My favorite tradition is driving around and looking at all of the lights. There is something about seeing the decorations that brightens my holiday.

  55. My favorite Holiday tradition is Holiday crafting! I make 100s of holiday cards each year. To date, I've already made over 50 cards. Tons of fun. Love this set, my favorite thing about it is the "cheery and bright" sentiment. Really useful if you are making "general holiday" cards. Thanks!

  58. I enjoy saying 'Thank You' to everyone who was so nice and helpful all year long. Baking, little treats wrapped in perfectly plaid papers….that's the fun part for me!

  60. I love this set! Great projects from the design team girls! My favorite holiday tradition is baking cookies with my daughter to give to family and friends.

  70. ADORABLE!! One of my favorite Christmas traditions is making my mother-in-law's chicken tetrazzini recipe for dinner on Christmas Eve. She was such an amazing cook, and it brings back so many wonderful memories!

  71. SQUEAL!! LOVING LOVING LOVING the AMAZING Set and the GREAT Inspiration!! My FAVORITE Tradition is Baking Christmas Cookies and Spending the 24th with my Family to celebrate my dads birthday!! THANKS for sharing and have a FABULOUS WEEK!! =)

  77. Love the cards! A favorite holiday tradition for our family is to have a talent show, where all of the kids perform for the adults and show us what they've been working on (singing or dancing, telling jokes, whatever they want to do).

  78. My favourite holiday tradition is having Christmas dinner with plum pudding to follow. My father-in-law makes the pudding and ships it to us across Canada every year. Is delicious! Such cute little critters in this set!

  81. SO CUTE and ever SO CHEERY 🙂
    My favourite family tradition is having all the family gathered together for Christmas lunch, we have a hot, traditional meal even though it's the middle of summer. It is wonderful to have everyone TOGETHER and I wish we could do it more often throughout the year.

  82. I have a couple of favorites. I have four kids, aged 29, 26, 24 and 19. Three are married. But still every year we go to the tree farm together and "argue" over the perfect tree, and one of the kids cuts the tree down and packs it out with dad. We have been going to the same tree farm for years and have a photo in front of the giant blow up snowman every year! We also have our girls' Cookie Day every year… my three daughters (and now the grandkids) come over to my house and we spend the entire day baking and decorating cookies! So fun!

  83. Oh so ADORABLE is all I can say about the inspiration today! 🙂 Our favorite Holiday tradition is playing games. Not reindeer games, but card games, board games, etc. It's something that has been passed down from my childhood.

  88. I love this set! My favorite is the reindeer with the Christmas lights. I LOVE all things Christmas! This set makes me want to put up my Christmas decorations asap 🙂

  94. I have a collection of Santa's. I look forward to the day after
    Thanksgiving – when I can start getting them out and putting them
    on display. It's like getting lots of presents because I've
    forgotten some of them and it's a surprise when they appear.
    I love seeing the little animals decorating and spending time
    around the tree. Darling set.
    thanks for sharing.

  96. I love Christmas and each year we have several trees. One of them is a homemade ornament tree, with ornaments we have made over the years. This year will be using Lawn Fawn's String of Lights dies to make our ornament. 😀

  102. Everything is just so adorable!!! Thanks so much for all the inspiring ideas 🙂 your videos are so amazing too!! We have a lot of Christmas traditions, but I'd have to say my favorite is watching the polar express!!

  103. so cute and cheery! We had started a tradition of a christmas potluck get together for friends who didn't have family around. i really enjoyed that.

  107. Adorable set! Once again, the design team hit it out of the park and Kelly Marie and Erica created the funnest set ever!! My favorite holiday tradition when I was little was that I got to decorate our holiday tree. I chose a different color scheme every year. And had such a great time decorating it! So fun!

  108. Kelly I love EST hing your videos and how you are able to make all of your stamp sets come to life. Just amazing!! Favourite Christmas tradition is decorating the Christmas tree the first weekend of November. It is getting a bit trickier to have the whole,family together as my kids are away at college, but thanks to FaceTime they can be there virtually!!

  109. On Christmas Eve, my husband, kids, and I have a "talent show." You can do anything as long as it pertains to Christmas. One year, my husband played Silent Night on a bicycle pump. It was so terrible, we all cried laughing!

  114. What an amazing release! So many cute and inspiring cards!
    We have a few great traditions but one we enjoy a lot is taking our parents out for drives to see the Christmas lights. My husband & I go a night or two before to find the best communities that are the best lit. Then we take our aging parents out to see them. Then we go and treat them to whatever they want before taking them home. Makes for some great memories!

  122. Such fun cards! As
    a family, we always
    went to church on
    Christmas Eve and
    when the sermon was
    finished, be lite
    up candles and tried
    to make it to the
    car without the wind
    blowing them out.
    Always a lot of fun.

  124. So much cuteness! I am getting giddy looking at all of these adorable inspirational cards and projects! Favourite holiday tradition is dinner with the entire family on Boxing Day!

  133. What a stinkin' cute stamp set! The cards are super adorable!!!!
    One of my favorite Holiday traditions I actually took over. My husbands grandmother used to make all of us a coffee can full of Kipferl cookies every Christmas. Since she passed away several years ago. My mother in law was kind enough to give me her hand written recipe for the Kipferl cookies along with the Vanilla Sugar recipe that the cookies are dipped in and I now make the cookies for everyone in the family every Christmas. I don't put them in a coffee can as I can't find them any more but I do put them in decorative containers.

  135. Adorable stamp and die set, it just makes you smile! Our holiday tradition has changed the last couple of years because our sons work on Christmas Day so my hubby and I head to the mountains and eat a Christmas buffet at a casino.

  136. my favorite family tradition is watching the California raisin claymation christmas every year on christmas eve. I love that I can watch the same movie with my kids that I watched as a kid too!

  139. I am totally in love with this set and would love to win it. One of my favorite holiday traditions is watching all kinds of Christmas movies in December and in January, just to have that Christmas feeling a little longer. Cause I love Christmas, with all the beautiful decorations.

  142. Our family tradition is to make a whole day of putting up the Christmas tree and other decorations. We have yummy snacks and play Christmas music. We treat ourselves to take-out for dinner after all our hard work!

  143. Love this set! My favourite holiday tradition is my Mum reading the Night before Christmas every Christmas eve; she started when I was a bump and has never missed a year.

  145. Oh my gosh! This post is loaded with cuteness! LOVE this stamp set and all of the adorable cards! My favorite holiday traditions are making a gingerbread house and decorating our tree with the kids.

  151. I love this stamp set! Kelly's cards are so adorable! My favorite holiday tradition is that I wrap all the gifts! I love wrapping presents and watching everyone open them and be surprised! My family gives me all the presents to wrap and then they get to be surprised too when someone opens their gift! It's a win-win all around!

  153. Seeing all my loved ones… we switch off being with my family or my in-laws every year (3,000 miles apart) so it is always a game of logistics but then we get multiple christmas celebrations.

  155. My favorite Christmas tradition is having lasagna on Christmas eve, my sister-in-law started this one year and it has stuck, but it is nice, you leave it warming in the oven, go to church service and have a great meal with everyone when you get home.

  156. Adorable!

    My favorite holiday tradition is watching my kids sprinkle the reindeer food in the front yard to attract Santa on Christmas eve. Even though my kids are 11 & 13 now, they're still good sports about it.

  158. My favorite holiday tradition is opening Christmas gifts with my family! I love seeing the look on their faces when they open something I know they really wanted! We always wrap things in funny boxes too so no one can guess what it is first!

  159. We have this old fashioned light up Santa and I always got to put it on the tree top. My Dad would always lift me up so I could put it on the very top. I still have it and always put it on our tree top. Great Memories.
    Way to think out of the box on a lot of your designs. Seriously amazing cards and tote!!! Well done!!!

  162. Every year since we bought our house, my husband and I host a big dinner party. Most of our friends, like ourselves, live a long way away from our families. So it's nice to be able to bring everyone together.

  173. Love these so cute critters. They add so much joy to the cards. Our favorite condition is to drive around and look at all the Christmas lights and then come back home, have hot chocolate and watch one of our favorite holiday movies in the light of our own tree.

  174. This is probably my favorite set for this holiday! I LOVE the cute little squirrels and those adorable little reindeer! Everything about this set is just so sweet. I love all the projects that were created using this set! One of our holiday traditions is to go around the city at night and looking at all the holiday lights on people's homes… and then we always come home, drink some hot cocoa and watch A Miracle on 34th Street.
    Hugs,
    Jo

  175. My favorite holiday tradition is getting the Christmas tree we always go on Black Friday to pick one out and try to get one bigger than the previous year (as the budget can handle lol) then go home and spend the evening trimming the tree usually with some hallmark Christmas movies on in the background! I'm getting excited just thinking about it 🙂

  176. Super projects and so much inspiration. This Cheery Christmas stamp set needs to be added to my toboggan together set for sure along with the String of Lights set of course.
    We love the tradition of looking at the light displays in the local parks especially during a gentle snowfall.
    DebbieC.

  177. Absolutely adorable project creations again! Love this set with coordinating dies. Favourite holiday tradition is Holiday Baking! Lots of fun, and yummy cookies =)

  180. So cute! A favorite holiday tradition is getting all the ladies together at my house for a cookie exchange party. We play games and sample cookies with cider and hot cocoa, and leave with fun new recipes!

  181. A favorite tradition of my children and now my grandchildren is to be allowed to open one gift under the tree just before bed on Christmas Eve… it's my choice which gift and it's funny that it's always new Christmas PJs but the kids act surprised every time 🙂

  192. Growing up in Switzerland we had a tradition that at school we would make a christmas wreath and it had 4 canles on it.

  202. Oh what pretty Stamp Set!! My favorite tradition is to celebrate on the 24th of December.

  205. I have the Toboggan set and this would definitely compliment it!
    Our fave tradition is to watch the comedy holiday themed movies and I like to make an advent calendar for my husband 🙂

  206. Oh, I'm so glad that I purchased the Cheery Christmas stamp set and dies. They are just so cute! My favourite holiday tradition is Christmas Eve, when our whole family gets together. Actually, it's my Aunt's birthday, so we have a birthday party and Christmas celebration together.

  207. Everything is just so cute and your designers really know how to showcase your products – I want it all!! Favorite Holiday tradition is – well, I have 2 – making and decorating Christmas sugar cookies AND going together to pick out a real live Christmas Tree!

  228. My favorite holiday tradition is decorating our Christmas tree. Each ornament we hang is dated and hold a special memory of that particular year…it's fun to reminisce as a family. 🙂

  232. My favorite holiday tradition is getting together with family. Our family is spread across the US and the holidays is the one time of year that we get to see most of the family. Life is so short. These special times together mean so much. Love the little critters and the lovely plaid!

  241. All of the cards today are so warm and fun for Christmas. our favorite family tradition has always been to drive around different neighborhoods and view all of the beautiful lights and decorations.

  245. My favorite tradition is going through our city's Parade of Lights.
    I just received the Toboggan Together set and am in love. Now this one. OH MY GOODNESS!! I just love your critters! I love Lawn Fawn products and they coordinate so well together!

  246. So many favorites – we always would eat our Thanksgiving dinner, then watch It's A Wonderful Life and set up the Christmas tree and nativity set. (And hide the pickle ornament – lol)

  251. My favourite holiday tradition is taking my 2 nephews ice skating on Christmas Eve. Santa is at the rink and they have treats and crafts for the kids. I just love how versatile and coordinated all of your products mesh together! I'm over the moon about the special dies for the inside of cards.

  252. What an adorable set. I love it and all the projects created using it too. My favorite holiday tradition is getting together with extended family and having a great time celebrating all the holidays!

  254. I especially love making special gifts for everyone. And baking & cooking with everyone!!Every moment spent, is better that $$

  255. Kelly Marie, you are dangerous to my wallet!!! Now I need those squirrels !!

  260. At Christmas, I love having a beautifully decorated home and a delicious meal with family. Can't wait for this year's celebration! Awesome projects! What a wonderful release!

  263. I absolutely love the scenes your designers have created with these stamps! Just adorable. <3
    My favorite tradition is admiring the tree with all the ornaments we've collected over the years. Not actually trimming the tree, mind you! It's difficult to get my family on board with the actual decorating of said tree. But…once that tree is lit up, ornaments hung and presents are underneath it…magic!

  264. our fav holiday tradition is to drive around Christmas eve and look at all the Christmas lights!! this is such a cute set of stamps!!

  266. Our holiday tradition was making paper snowflakes while roasting marshmallow in the fireplace. Once all the snowflakes were make, we had silly categories like most fancy, most like a spider web….and we voted…no one ever lost, we were too busy laughing!

  267. Such festive inspiration! Love it! A favorite tradition is getting the tree and then spending a few weeks decorating it with handmade ornaments crafted over the holidays with my kids.

  270. Christmas morning, my kids open their stocking gifts. I tend to do the majority of the present shopping, but the stocking gifts are things my husband has picked out. He always gets them some sort of activity, a puzzle, or a craft to keep them busy during the morning because our family doesn't open Christmas presents until after dinner.

  272. My favorite holiday tradition is opening up a gift on Christmas Eve of pajamas and a Christmas movie. Nothing beats spending the evening cuddled up on the couch in pajamas with the family watching a Christmas movie!

  274. My favorite Christmas tradition is decorating the tree. So many wonderful memories go with the ornaments. I also love sending and receiving Christmas cards.

  282. I think that your stamp sets capture the pure essence of my childhood memories surrounding Christmas. Everything was so magical back then. Favorite tradition: Eating! We start at Thanksgiving and eat right on through New Year's Eve. Some of the recipes we use have been in the family for at least 120 years. That's a long time and a lot of happy memories.

  283. My favorite holiday tradition is making holiday cookies with my daughters and meeting with family and later playing steal a gift which is usually full of laughter and surprise! Absolutely love the gift bag made by Latisha and the chili pepper snowy backdrop idea by Elena!

  284. My favorite holiday tradition is opening gifts with my family then meeting up with other family and friends for a festive dinner with lots of delicious food and treats!

  285. I love the squirrel that's precariously perched!! (We like to say that around here). My favorite holiday tradition is eating cake for breakfast on Christmas Eve!

  289. I love making scenes and these critters fit here just perfectly!
    My favorite Christmas tradition is decorating the tree and gathering the whole family together. Very cheerful and moving moments for me!

  291. My favorite tradition is that we decorate at the end of Novemeber setting up the creche on the mantle, and then we put Mary, Joseph and the donkey on the opposite end of the house. Each night we light our advent wreath, read a story or a bible verse and move Mary and Joseph along their journey, as well as partake of the German chocolate advent calendar from their Oma! It's fun and even though the kids are grown, they like the tradition!

  293. My favourite tradition is carol singing after Christmas Eve dinner with my family. We all love music, so it involves at least one piano, several tattered carol books and people singing different parts for classic carols. It really makes me feel connected to my family in a way that nothing else does throughout the year, and it makes me really thankful for them.

  298. This stamp set is so cute! My favorite tradition is decorating the Christmas tree and the house the day after thanksgiving. We listen to Christmas music and make some hot chocolate for the kids!

  302. I can not tell you how happy these critters and plaids make me!!! Heaven!

    My fave holiday tradition with my family is when we go to this neighborhood nearby and (the week before Christmas) it is completely decorated and they put on a whole production of it. I still see such wonder on my kids' faces and we've been doing it for 10 years now.

  303. One of our favorite family traditions is that at Christmas time, each member of the family gets a new ornament to put on the tree each year. Then when the kids get married an move out we let them take their ornaments with them and have a great and memorable start to their own family tree.

  304. All of my favorite holiday traditions go back to those I had with my mother. To this day, I still enjoy our little homemade advent-type tradition that consisted of opening these itsy bitsy colorful paper bags that included a small little holiday inspired figuring. To this day I still take joy in this tradition!

  307. One of our old traditions, especially when my brother, sister, and cousins were all young, (I am the oldest)is to stay up late at Grandma's house on Christmas Eve with my uncles playing Go Fish and stealing their "manhood," as they have always put it, drinking cider, beer, hot chocolate, or coffee and putting together any Christmas gifts that require construction while everyone else sleeps. And then an old friend of one of my uncles (Big John) showing up at about midnight to bring him a super odd/crazy gift. They have always been entertaining.

  310. My favorite holiday tradition is my gathering my hubby and children in the kitchen and baking the plethora of cookies & fudge that we give as gifts to our family and friends. We have such a lovely, bonding time – so much fun! Thank you for sharing your creativity, super inspiring!

  314. Such cute ideas, my favourite tradition is our family getting together with some good family friends for dinner, both families have grown and changed but it's been going for 36 years.

  316. FAVORITE set out of all the new ones!
    My favorite tradition is celebrating Christmas eve/ Heiligabend with my family and visiting the church at 11pm – they have a light show and give the "Friedenslicht", which translates into light of peace and you take a candle home with you and try to let it burn as long as possible.

  317. Favorite tradition is to go out of town to our favorite hotel for a few nights right before Christmas . We get quality family time and can relax a little before Christmas.

  325. My favourite holiday tradition is hanging out stockings that were handmade by my mum. Now I have a sister-in-law, a niece, a nephew and nearly a husband it is even more special!

  326. My favorite holiday tradition is having Christmas Eve dinner, going to church and then coming home to open gifts. On Christmas morning, we open the stockings that Santa left us.

  327. My favorite holiday tradition is my kiddos and I make gingerbears for my mom, they love decorating them and it so fun to "suprise" He every year!

  334. My favorite holiday tradition is having the whole famiy together, playing games, laughing and just being together. We are all so busy, we need that time to bond and reconnect!

  341. Tradition – PJ day on December 26th. Husband and two children (now 23 and 20!) must where PJ's all day and no cell phones! Was established when the kids were little so that we had a day to ourselves – Xmas Eve and Day are spent with extended family. We used the day to play the games and put toys together that the kids got for Christmas. My favorite day of the year!

  351. These are the sweetest cards ever. My favorites are the pop-ups! My favorite Christmas tradition is my whole extended family getting together at my grandmother's house and eating a meal that she made almost all by herself. She worked for 2 weeks on cakes and froze them. She just loved Christmas and baking for everyone!
