It's a lot of work but it is so worth it!

Hi!
ReplyDeleteThanks for designing such a pretty cartridge. Our favorite family tradition is spending a free evening watching Christmas movies together, and just being together. We always have hot chocolate, cookies and lots of fun. As the kids have gotten older it's been something everyone looks forward too.
So many special holiday traditions that my family share. I suppose that one of my favorites is reading about Jesus's birth from the Bible on Christmas Eve. Love all these projects you've shared!
ReplyDeleteAmazing projects!! My favorite tradition is cookie baking with my daughter. And my son loves the butter cookies I make and we will take the whole bucket of cookies and eat them while we play a video game together. He doesn't play too much with me anymore, but will during our holiday :)
ReplyDeleteLove all the DT inspiration with this amazing new cartridge. I am so excited to see this ! Our absolutely favorite holiday tradition is driving around looking at Christmas Lights the week before Christmas. We play Christmas music and bring freshly baked Christmas cookies and hot cooca in the car with us and drive through a couple of neighborhoods in town that every house is decorated. It is a wonderful tradition we started when our kids were little and now do it with our grandchildren. Thanks for a chance to win the cartridge...Debbie O'Neal

What a fabulous cart and just in time for the holidays!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is decorating the tree. It is such a treasure to take out each ornament and remember where I got it or who gave it to me..a wonderful way to remember all the memories through the years. <3
Fabulous cart. our favorite tradition is make a gingerbread house every year with my kids.
ReplyDeleteI just adore that pillow! My favorite holiday tradition is putting up our tree the weekend after Thanksgiving as a family:)
ReplyDeleteOMG - I LOVE this cartridge - so many beautiful designs. My favorite tradition has always been my kids (who are now 21 and 24) and I going over to my mom's on Christmas Eve and spending the night with her and waking up together on Christmas morning. We just lost my mom a few months ago, so it will definitely be different this year, but plan on continuing with both of my kids coming over and spending the night with me and the 3 of us waking up together. Just being together with family is what Christmas is all about to me. Thank you so much for the chance to win this beautiful cartridge!
ReplyDeleteFavorite Christmas tradition...making ornaments with my girls! Something we ALL love to do. My girls (ages 27, 21, 18, 12, & 10) look forward to this each year!!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is our family gathering at my Mom's house for Christmas Eve. We have a buffet dinner, open presents, and catch up on each other's events. My Mom is now 89 yrs young and it is getting harder for her to complete this task, but she still carries on! Love her to the moon and back! Thank you for the inspirational designs and the chance to win this great cart.

This year will be the first one with grandchildren...two of them!!! love the sparkle vinyl idea..I'm inspired! Thanks for the chance to win
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is setting up my Nativity after the Christmas tree is up. I light candles and turn off the lights (except for the tree) and reflect on the season.
ReplyDeleteOur favorite family tradition is making up plates of cookies and picking random people to give them to. Love the new Christmas cartridge. Thank you for sharing and a chance to win. Hugs, Velma
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous cartridge and projects! I love that each year on black Friday we spend the day decorating the tree as a family - then watch the Santa Clause.
ReplyDeleteI totally love this cartrtidge. My favorite Christmas traditon is to put all my Ty Beanie Christmas characters under the tree and to watch the grandchildren play with them. As they are growing older, they now share stories of how they played with each character when they thot MawMaw wasn't watching!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition: making Christmas cards for friends and family and enclosing the special photo of the kids wearing their holiday finest in front of our Christmas tree! This cartridge would be perfect for that :) I also love the tradition our family has where we enjoy yummy whole wheat apple muffins on Christmas morning, baked the night before. It so much easier to NOT cook breakfast that morning as the kids just want to dig right into the presents!
ReplyDeleteOur. Annual tradition is to put Christmas trees in every room!! Love this cartridge.

LOVE this new cartridge - can't wait to get it! My favorite Christmas tradition is making a gingerbread house with the kids.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome cartridge...favorite tradition....putting baby Jesus in the manger Christmas morning and singing him Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is our "24 Days of December.". It is our version of an advent calendar, counting down the days to Christmas. Each of my girls have their own little mini tree (about 3 feet tall) in their rooms, and on December first, they wake to find 24 small packages under their trees. They get to open one when they wake up each day. My parents did this for us as children, and I hope my girls continue the tradition with their own children some day!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome cartridge and great projects from the team. My favorite tradition is getting together with my family.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful cartridge. I love all the images (which I don't usually on most cartridges). Favorite tradition would be decorating the house. My mother and I live together and it is our favorite holiday. We are up to 5 Christmas trees, each with their own theme, plus a manger and other decorations either collected or created over the years. I also bake a birthday cake for Jesus for Christmas day.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Holiday tradition is baking cookies with my kids to take to the neighbors on Christmas Eve. :) What a wonderful cartridge this is! Thanks for the chance to win! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work on all of these projects with the new cart! My favorite tradition is getting together with my two daughters and grandchildren on Christmas day to see all of their excitement before,during and after them opening their gifts! So PRECIOUS!!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite family tradition is a rather new one but will be one we carry on for many many years. My grandmother & grandfather were both full-blooded Norwegians and every Christmas they worked many hours to prepare many wonderful Scandanavian Christmas goodies for us. For many years we were not included in the preparation of these because my grandmother never wanted to believe she wasn't going to be here. The last few years she was no longer able to make these on her own. We started the tradition of her daughters, daughter-in-laws, granddaughters and one grandson getting together on Thanksgiving weekend and whipping out all of these wonderful treats.
ReplyDeleteThis will be the first year that she will not be able to physically be with us but will most definitely be with us in spirit. Last year she joined us for that day and only a month later was called to her heavenly home. We miss her greatly but are so thankful that we will still have this day and the great knowledge that she passed on to us to share with our own families.
Oh how fun a cartridge and a paper collection!!
ReplyDeleteMy fav tradition on Christmas afternoon or evening is to go the theater to see a holiday movie. When our boys hit their teens they were no longer receiving "toys" and there was not much to do after the meal and opening gifts so we started going to the theater. Our youngest was married this year so we have to consider another families tradition and may not be able to all go.
Crossing my fingers for good luck that my name will be picked. Thanks!
OM Gosh . . . too many ideas now . . . I don't think my brain can handle it. Love the cartridge . . . even more because it's designed by Theresa! Can't wait to get it (one way or another - it will be on my wish list!). Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is decorating the house with a tree in almost every room. Most are color/theme based to coordinate with the room. However, the 'main' tree in the family room is more the tradition tree, decorated with ornaments we've collected for 32 years. It tells our life story with ornaments that celebrate births, anniversaries, pets, jobs, hobbies, favorites... The largest collection is of our vacations & travels. I collect ornaments from every place we visit and each year as we unpack them we take a few minutes to reminisce. Both of my boys, now 23 & 25, have their own 'life' trees as well with an ornament collection that started from the day they were born and covers many of the mile stones, favorites, travels... in their lives.
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful projects you ladies have created with Teresa's awesome cartridge!!! Your ideas and creativity are so inspiring! I hope to try and duplicate some of your ideas and design some of my own with this!! You are the most talented design team ever! My parents owned a bakery so I grew up and worked there since the age of nine. I always remember the end of Novemeber and all of December coming home from school each day having to ice and decorate racks and racks of Christmas cutout cookies!! I mean a LOT of cookies. I remember thinking" I hope I never see another cutout cookie as long as I live"! When my Dad passed away, I asked if I could have the cutout cookie cutters from our bakery. Now, my favorite tradition is making cutout cookies using those same cutters with all my children and now my grandson. I love that I can share a bit of my childhood with them and also let them learn a little more about the Grandpa that they never got to know for very long. And my son's and grandson's favorite cookie....the cutout! priceless.
ReplyDeleteLove this cart and the DT did an amazing job on the projects!! My favorite holiday tradition is letting my kids each pick out an ornament to paint and hang on the tree every year. The best part is when they get out the ornaments and find the ones the did in years past, they will reminiscent about the year they made each ornament.
ReplyDeleteReally love the new Christmas cartridge and the Design Team inspiration. My favorite Christmas tradition is watching the grandchildren open presents on Christmas morning. Thanks for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteLove this super versatile cartridge ! It will be so great for the holidays!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is decorating the tree, unwrapping each ornament and talking about its origin, memories, and where it came from. Then we lovingly place it on the tree..
ReplyDeleteOur favorite tradition is having a laugh at the various ornaments my son has made over the years. Our tree topper is one made by my son when he was very young. It's a toilet paper roll wrapped in foil with some red and blue sprigs coming out. I'm pretty sure its fireworks but he was sure it was more star like. We just laugh. My son who is now taller than me get a big ole hug from me every time! Wonderful cartridge.
ReplyDeleteI have a collection of Santa's. I look forward to Thanksgiving because I can start setting the Santa's out for display. I did a lot of needlework and I have a tree that is decorated with just my hand-stitched ornaments.
ReplyDeleteThose are my favorite traditions - right after having Christmas Day dinner with my kids each year.
This cartridge is amazing! I love everything about it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is to have everyone open 1 gift on Christmas Eve. I have done this every year of my life and I loved introducing this tradition to my husband and children. It's always something small but meaningful that will put a smile on everyone's face as they try to fall asleep.
I guess my favorite tradition these days is watching the grandkids see what Santa has left for them under the tee and in their stockings.
ReplyDeleteThis cartridge is so elegant looking.
Lisa
My favorite tradition, is getting together with my husband's family and my family--one big group. We rent a township hall on Christmas Eve.
ReplyDeleteLove this new cartridge!
I love the cartridge and all the inspirational projects. I have two new traditions, with the addition of my grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteOne is everyone gets a book. I wanted them to start early with the love of reading.
The other is everyone gets a gift of something sweet, with the tag reading; "Life is short, make it sweet".
My favorite holiday tradition is gathering with my family for Christmas Eve at my house. I love having the entire family in one place to enjoy good food and company! But I really love everything about the holiday season, the decor, the food, the giving spirt, and the holiday crafts, it's a wonderful time of year.
ReplyDeleteI love the entire season! Our family has a tradition on Christmas Eve of preparing a seafood dinner together, then sitting down with one another to enjoy it. We talk about the excitement in the air, the season and its meaning, and what may be hidden under the tree. Love this precious time spent with my family!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is watching an old B&W Christmas movie on Christmas Eve before going to bed (usually It's a Wonderful Life or the Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim)...it sets the tone for the next day!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is cooking food and dessert with the family. We get all together in my house and make a mess in the kitchen but we have fun. The kids love making cookies and decorate them. This cartridge is soo gorgeous and this is an amazing giveaway. It's so beautiful and perfect for my Christmas cards and tags for the present. Thank you again for creating this wonderful cartridge and for this amazing giveaway.
ReplyDeleteFavorite holiday tradition is decorating the tree while listening to Christmas carols. Beautiful cartridge.
ReplyDeleteWow.. When I think about this cartridge, it puts me in the Christmas mood & I'm just putting up my fall decorations. TC Design's truly inspire's me. I just Love this stamp set. Absolutely amazing : )
ReplyDeleteThis is just an amazing cartridge! I love everything about it. We have lots of wonderful family traditions at our house but the one that comes to mind is every Christmas Eve we have appetizer type foods and sit and watch the 1954 movie White Christmas. (my boys, now grown can even recite dialogue...haha) Then we open one gift...it's always Christmas pajamas, and read the Christmas story from Luke. It is always a wonderful time with my family.
ReplyDeletelove the cartridge..favorite tradition would have to be spending time with family & friends over the holidays & making caramel popcorn & peanut brittle for the goody bags
ReplyDeleteWonderful cartridge! My fav holiday tradition is watching It’s a Wonderful Life on Christmas eve!

ReplyDeleteToo cute!!! You did it again. I am going to have to have this for some projects this season.
ReplyDeleteOh my fabulous..my favorite holiday tradition is opening our gifts at midnight...the lights just sparkle from the tree and the excitement is just too much to wait till morning...
ReplyDeleteFavorite tradition: Christmas morning I make Orange Kisses - a breakfast pastry.
ReplyDeleteGosh was in love with this cartridge just from the images - then saw your projects and oh my!
ReplyDeleteI love "everything" Christmas and it's hard to pick one tradition....but I guess it would be putting up the Christmas countdowns - that's when the fun begins!
Love this cartridge... so many great images. My favorite Christmas tradition is just spending time with those I care about....
ReplyDeleteI am making my Christmas cards and this is the cartridge that I am going to use! The designs are absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful images Teresa!! My favorite is Yuletide Season as I have not seen this in a stamp or image before. Great choice!
ReplyDeleteLove the cartridge!! My favorite is the cardinal on the branch. thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteOMG I just love all ur layouts. I can't wait to add this cartridge to my collection. Once again you have created a wonderful cartridge.
ReplyDeleteIt's silly but my favorite is the Christmas dinner we have after the 1st of January. Everything gets so busy during the holidays, years ago my grandmother decided to make it easy on everyone. Spend Christmas with the other side of your families and we will have our Christmas dinner on her side in January. (I think she did it so she had a reason to leave her tree up into January.) The hustle and chaos is gone and we just get to enjoy each other's company.
ReplyDeletetammyK.
this cartridge is gorgeous and the projects with the paper collection terrific thanks for this chance. My favorite tradition is giving thanks everyday between Thanksgiving and Christmas by using a jar and everyone writes something, then looked at Christmas Eve
ReplyDeleteupnurse at aol dot com
I absolutely love this new cartridge! My favorite family tradition at Christmas time is baking cookies and candies to share with our friends and family.
ReplyDeleteWow, wow, wow! I love this beautiful cart and I am just starting to search for ideas for my Christmas Cards, so this one is a must!
ReplyDeleteI love this cartridge so much, so many wonderful designs and so versatile. This is the one Christmas cartridge I would buy!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite tradition is gathering our extended family together to exchange Christmas stockings. It is always so much fun to see what each of us gets/gives! So many laughs!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite holiday traditions is going to see a movie with my whole family on Christmas afternoon. Spending time & laughing with them is the best!
ReplyDeleteWow! Love the cartridge! Every year our family exchanges ornaments for the tree. My Mother has a 10 foot tree and it takes her two weeks to get it done! It's so neat to see the ornaments from many years past still have a home on the tree!
ReplyDeleteWow! You all came up with some great ideas for this cartridge! My mom takes a day off from work to decorate her tree every year. I'm not quite that extreme but I do enjoy the weekend after Thanksgiving preparing for the Christmas season! Thank you for the great ideas and the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI posted messages everywhere! I really want to win this cartridge! It's just so gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteLove it. Thanks for the opportunity to win such a great cartridge!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is decorating the tree and baking Christmas cookies with the kids.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is one I started with the kids a few years ago ... scavenger hunt Christmas morning to find their main present ... each "present" has a clue inside of where the next "present" is ... usually about 5 or 6 clues until they actually find the PRESENT ... lots of fun and they loved it ...
ReplyDeleteOne of my next projects is to do an album of all the Christmas' in my family through the years ... this cartridge would be perfect!!!
I love making Christmas cookies with my mom. This cartridge has gorgeous images. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteLove the projects! There are several beautiful images that could easily become my favorites, but I'll choose the snowflake with the flourish!
ReplyDeleteOh this cartridge is so cute!! My favorite is the Christmas tree or the manger scene! I love how the entire cartridge has a vintage feel! I love all of the projects made here and can't wait to try some projects of my own with this amazing cartridge!!
ReplyDeleteAs a family, we love to watch a Christmas movie on Christmas eve and we also exchange a small gift that night. Super, great cartridge! I can't wait to get it! Beautiful projects by your team!

My favorite tradition is the Nanny Sack! I have three grandchildren and I shop all year for things to put in their monogramed red flannel sack. On Christmas day, each child sits on my lap and we open the sack together. It's our time....just grandchild and Nanny. Even when they are too old to sit on my lap, I'll still fill thier Nanny sack.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this awesome cartridge.
Making holiday crafts has ALWAYS been my favorite holiday tradition. First, as a child, to give to my parents, then for my children, now with my children.
ReplyDeleteWhen my now 23 year old daughter was little, we always made her wait until we had the video camera on and ready to capture her every emotion when she first saw her gifts. As she got older we still made her wait to see what "Santa" brought her. Now as we approach her 23rd Christmas, we will still make her wait until the video camera is set up and the coffee is on!! And she probably will still stand at the top of the stairs begging to come down!!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great cartridge!! It is I think my favorite holiday one yet!
This is such a gorgeous cartridge! Thanks for the nativity image - I love it. My favorite tradition is trimming the tree with my sons. They're young adults now and I still wait for them to be home from college before I start.

Fabulous new cart! Thanks for sharing so many amazing projects! My favorite tradition is getting tags off the tree at church and buying toys for kiddos that otherwise wouldn't have Christmas presents :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the new cartridge!! My favorite holiday tradition is we get to open one present Christmas Eve. It is usually a game or movie, something that the whole family can enjoy together. Thanks for the chance to win!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is decorating the Christmas tree as a family. Each year my husband and I choose an ornament for each of our three children to place on the tree. The kids will place all of their ornaments from prior years on the tree first and then we present them with their ornament for the current year. When the time comes for them to move out into their own homes they will take their ornaments with them to place on their Christmas trees. My hope is that they will continue this tradition with my future grandchildren :D You have absolutely capturied the Christmas Spirit in the images on this cartridge and I can't tell you how thrilled I would be to win! Thank You!
ReplyDeleteI love making cookies. My mother and I will get together and make dozens of cookies. We listen to Christmas music and use my Grandma's old recipes. It is wonderful.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite holiday tradition is now having a giant family breakfast on Christmas morning with my husband's step-dad's family. As many of the family as possible is there, the same foods are served every time...very homey...everyone all crammed together at a few tables...yummy good stuff, so nice and cozy...it's the event I look forward to the most each year since they've been in my life...this Christmas will mark 6 years of me being a part of this tradition...! =D

ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is going to church Christmas Eve with my family.

My favorite christmas tradition is baking and decorating sugar cookies with my family!!!! They never turn out looking like martha stewarts but they sure do taste delicious!! haha thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic cartridge! Thank you for the opportunity to win. There are so many thinks I love about the holiday season (spending time with family, taking pictures, baking & making memories) but my favorite holiday tradition is taking part in a Santa Book Drive that my company does every year in the Phoenix area. Each year, we select a target school to "gift". We buy a book for each & every student, hand wrap each and every one (last year it was almost 500!), stuff individual goody bags for the students, prepare special gifts for the teachers and coordinate supply donations for the school. I enjoy the camaraderie with my fellow co-workers, but the best part is delivery day! A couple of our employees dress up as Santa, Mrs. Claus and elves. Then on the last day of school before winter break, we surprise the students with a visit from the "one and only" Santa Claus! We give each student a book and goody bag before they get some 1-on-1 time with Santa. The looks on the kids' faces is what I enjoy the most. Because we select schools that are in economically challenged communities, our gift is the only gift a child may get during the Holidays. The joy and appreciation are hard to describe but that look is what Christmas is all about. It warms my heart and soul. For me, it is the true meaning of season.
