I think the best way with this challenge is to choose some supplies and make all 6 cards in a similar vein.
So this month I've used the remnants of an Authentique christmas paper pad.....green,red and gold card........red twine......some stamped images left from last christmas.....washi tape......and finally added one embellishment.
the first 4 cards are all A6 size
the washi tape used instead of a sentiment saved a lot of time
I'm not quite sure why I'd stamped one in red.....but I think it works okay
the final 2 cards are square and I decided not to add twine.......but a larger embellishment
here's all 6
So 12 christmas cards made now......only about another 30 to go!!!

I think that is exactly the right approach to this challenge. A lovely set of cards. I don't think you can beat red gold and green.
What a super vintage collection of Christmas cards, makes me feel positively festive just looking at them
Happy Friday

These are great Jacky - the stamped images are wonderful. I have 22 Christmas cards done & will be going to a Stampin' Up class to make more at the end of the month.
These are really lovely Jackie!! Your pile of cards ready for the festive is building nicely!! Thanks for joining in with our 6 Cards Challenge at S J Crafts xx
Brilliant! I'm like you and can take a bit of Christmas at any time of the year..you've got me quite excited for it now. I love your vintage look.
Jacky, your cards are fantastic i simply love the stamped images and how you have framed them...super gorgeous. You have the right approach too - that's exactly what I done x
I know they are all similar (and gorgeous as usual) but for some reason that first one really stands out for me. Beautiful!
These cards are just lovely! The washi tape is lovely. Nothing like Christmas coming early :) Thanks for sharing them! x
I really enjoyed seeing the subtle variations between each one and it 's a good lesson to remember that it is quicker to create similar cards than keep trying to make different ones! The red Santa is really festive!
What a lovely set of cards! Every time you post one of these I get nervous since I have NO idea what I'm doing about Christmas cards this year!
They look fabulous Jacky - and you must have built up quite a stash by now!
I like the vintage feel of these Jacky. You are so organised!
gorgeous cards Jacky, love all the red so Christmassy, I keep meaning to give it a go as it is really such a good idea to get organised for Christmas!
These are just gorgeous!
Oh wow these are just so gorgeous Jacky, love the vintage feel.
These are fabulous Jacky, I love how you made them all similar but with a different embellishment, that's a great idea! thanks for joining in with Six on the 6th again! x
