I'm super excited to be guesting over at one of my favourite challenges - the funny, the snarky, the one and only Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. The design team is just the most fun out there in blog land. Anyhow, this week I have the honour and pleasure to join them. And the theme is... drumroll... X is for Xyloid. Yes, that confused face is very similar to mine when I heard what the theme was. Then Lindsey kindly explained to me that xyloid means wood-related. After putting my thinking cap on for a while, I ended up with several ideas - but then I thought actually getting out a Christmas tree would not only satisfy the challenge requirement but also finally get me started with my Christmas card stash. I mean it's almost May, and I haven't created a single Christmas card?!?! What kind of crafter am I? Have you started your Christmas card stash yet? If not maybe you can take this as an opportunity to get started, although any xyloid creation is, of course, welcome in the gallery of Snark.
