Let’s check out some awesome samples and a fun video!

 Chari made a super cute Cheery Christmas window card! She made it really special by creating a quilted look with Stitched Borders!

 Ivy shares a brilliant idea for a photo Christmas card! The fun layers of Perfectly Plaid Winter paper and Narwhal cardstock highlight the photo while the glittery Winter Big Scripty Words die cut adds holiday cheer!

 Christy added a mix of pretty patterns to her Frosty Fairy Friends design! I love how she curved the sentiment to match the Stitched Circle!

 Winter Unicorn looks adorable on Latisha‘s festive card! Winter Big Scripty Words and Merry Messages combine to create the perfect greeting!
Lynette turned our Scalloped Treat Box into a fun and festive gingerbread house using Sweet Christmas! She trimmed it out with Stitched Scalloped Borders for more charming gingerbread detail!

I just love Samantha‘s wonderful clean and simple style on this pretty Winter Owl design! 

 I love Kristin‘s bold String of Lights design! The addition of the Put a Bow on It bow adds lots of drama!

 Nicole‘s adorable card design with Cheery Christmas, Winter Big Scripty Words and Perfectly Plaid Christmas paper is great for making multiples!

Now we have another awesome video by Yainea! You can watch it here or at our YouTube channel.

Thanks so much for watching!

I love Yainea‘s clever spinning card! The way she altered the Joy to the Woods fox is such a creative idea!

  2. My favorite Winter activity is taking my kids to the mountains every year between Christmas and New Years to play in the snow and have fun!! My favorite time of year!

  3. My favorite winter activity is curling up by the fire with a mug of something hot & crocheting with my daughter. Thanks for the giveaways!

  8. My favorite winter activity is skiing, cross country skiing or just walking in the beautiful snow landscape. Followed by a nice big mug of hot tea or cocoa somewhere warm and cozy.
    Thank you for these inspiring projects. I may "steal" an idea or two if you don't mind… 🙂

  39. In the winter I absolutely love playing in the snow outside, sledding and sliding down the hills and then coming in to the fire and a mug of hot cocoa. We don't get snow often where I live so it's extra special when we do. Fingers crossed for this year!

  47. Awesome inspiration today!! Thank you! I think my favorite winter activity would have to be sledding…always a fun time to come inside for hot cocoa too! 🙂

  49. Such great projects and products!! Living in Texas, my favorite winter activity would be sitting around the fire pit making s'mores with the grandkids! I love snow, though, and if we do get some, I will be taking lots of pics of its beauty!

  54. Wonderful inspiration! And I love you are featuring older products too. I am really not an outdoor winter kind of gal lol but I do like walking in the snow and an occcasional snowball fight. 😁

  57. My favorite winter activity is curling up with a cup of hot spiced cider, my cat, and a good book while it rains outside. Thanks for the give away and the amazing card ideas.

  64. Since I'm getting old – I can't go in for a lot of the outside cold weather
    activities. I prefer sitting in my lounge chair, reading a book, with the
    fireplace blazing (watching it snow if I'm lucky enough to have snow coming
    down).
    Love the holiday cards.
    thanks for sharing.

  65. All such beautiful cards! I love Yainea's spinning card, it is a gorgeous card and I love that it spins Merry Christmas and Santa and his reindeer! My favourite winter activity is staying inside and watching a beautiful snowfall from my window while having some hot coco, I am not a cold outdoors person :)!

  70. I love them all! LF is fast becoming my favorite stamp and die company. My favorite winter activity is sitting with a cup of hot chocolate, snuggled under a throw and reading a good book. If it's before Christmas I love to also just sit and look at the tree lights.

  71. Another wonderful idea…using Sweet Christmas stamps and dies to make a gingerbread house. I think I use this as a Thanksgiving Day project up to a point, then after the girls leave, I'll finish each one differently and surprise them with "their" house on Christmas Day! Even at 19, 23 and 24 they will still love the idea!!! Thanks so much for all the inspirations here on the blog! I'm never going to get my Christmas cards done at this rate!! LOL.

  79. My favorite thing to do is watch my grandchildren! Everything is new and exciting in their eyes. It reminds me of my childhood and being with my family and how exciting everything was then! Now with grandkids it's ten times better!

  80. Yaay! I already have to supplies to CASE Chari's, Nicole's and Yainea's cards – WOO HOO!! They are all beautiful – and that house!! AWESOME! My favorite winter activity is building a snowman but I would LOVE to try snowshoeing sometime! Thanks for the chance to win and thanks for sponsoring this wonderful card drive as well, spreading cheer to some who need it most!

  82. Super projects today. Love the squirrels decorating the tree, oh I wish I was on that beach and I love the string of lights. Great spinner card idea too.
    I love to walk in the freshly falling snow or be out tobogganing with the grandkids.

  91. Loving today's inspiration! The gingerbread house and spinner card are amazing! Your design team is the best! My favorite winter activity is playing in the snow and then getting warm by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate!

  103. In the past I always looked forward to a possible snow skiing trip in winter, however my fun now has turned into trying to put a smile on other people face by making and sending cards, Not only to family and friends but Caring Hearts card drive as well. Sitting by the fire with my little, stamping, coloring, cutting and glueing. I love it!!! It is so much better to give than receive.

  105. My favourite winter activity is planning and taking a trip away from the cold and snow! We haven't managed to in quite a few years as we are saving for retirement but hopefully soon we will again. Love all the darling cards. Thanks so much for the great demo on how to make the spinning card. Love the tip about the fox!

  109. All of these cards and projects are adorable! I had to stop and pause on most of them – very impressive! My favourite winter activity is staying inside and making cards! I love snow but I don't like the cold!

  119. My favorite winter activity is turning the heat low, wrapping up in a blanket, and drinking hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows. If we get snow, I love watching it snow but we don't get much.

  122. Super project – walking in the snow when the sun is super shinning – we have days here in Michigan where getting out in the snow can be a treat – not blizzard days – a nice warm, sunny day with snow on the ground –

  125. My daughter & I are allergic to the cold, so I don't do much for winter activities. We do go into the forestry and get our tree every year and I love when it's just lightly snowing and so quiet and peaceful. Also, I can't forget about drinking hot chocolate!

  128. So many amazing ideas!!! I love the treat box! It's just so adorable. And the spinner card is so beautiful!! My favorite holiday activity would be craft and cookie making!! I made plans for different crafts and cookies every year.

  133. So many fantastic projects and ideas – that spinner card is simply amazing! My favourite winter activity is usually taking long walks when the snow is nice and white and makes this great crunchy noise under your feet… and then coming home, snuggling under a blanket in front of a fireplace, and having some mulled wine 🙂 I don't get to do that often enough though! Once my little girl is a bit bigger (she's currently just over one), I'm sure my favourite activity in winter will change – building a snowman and going skating or sledging will probably take over! 🙂

  136. I'm not much of an outdoorsy person, so I'd have to say my favorite winter activity is staying indoors and making cards while watching the snow fall. Lol. 🙂

  140. My favorite winter activity is drinking hot cocoa with my girls while we snuggle under the electric blankets! My hubs like to keep the house a little colder than I like.

  144. I love going to see all the holiday lights, everything from luminarias to the flower shapes at the botanical garden to everyone's festive house.

  145. One of my favorite winter activities is to go hiking in the woods after a freshly fallen snow. It's so beautiful and quiet. Plus it's always fun to walk across the frozen lake during the hike!

  146. Those squirrels on your card are so adorable! To bad they aren't like that at my house! Those Ninja Squirrels dug holes in our lawn, climbed down from the roof and stayed on our window screens and put holes in them, dug up my flowers and veggie garden, you name it, they've done it! I can't wait to get rid of them but who knows when that will be? I love all of the cards. They are all so Christmassy and that gingerbread house and spinner card are the bomb! Great crafting you guys!
    My favorite winter activity? I used to love ice skating and sledding but since my niece and nephew are now grown up (19 and 22) and my dad who used to go with us is 92 we don't do that anymore. My nephew is away at college and my niece lives in FL. Last Christmas we didn't have winter because it was 65! I guess my favorite winter activity is crafting! We live on either side of 2 big hills so if the weather is really bad, we might not leave the house for a day or 2 so I really couldn't do any winter activities even if I wanted to. Their have been a few times when they closed down our state for 3 days or so staying in to craft is something I would do. I'd get a lot of stamping done!

  160. Skating was always my favorite when I lived somewhere that actually got winter lol! We only get rain here and it keeps us inside all winter.

  166. WONDERFUL projects and INSPIRATION … SO MUCH to make, SUCH LITTLE TIME left to do it!!!
    I love to go down to the beach, sit snug & protected in the car, watching the wild waves 🙂

  170. One of my favorite winter activities is snowshoeing – it's so peaceful & I love being able to get out in the wonderful beauty of the Rocky Mountains!

  177. Love cooking up a big pot of chili when the temp drops. Smells & tastes good, warms me up. Love all the projects- Yainea has knocked it out of the park- found myself thinking about her card all day yesterday. Guess I need to make a few for Christmas!
