Hello,
Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #303 - Seasonal, where we're inviting you to draw inspiration from a "season" and create cards that are specific to that season. For instance, for Fall and Winter, you may consider the rapidly approaching US Thanksgiving and Christmas, respectively. Whatever you choose, as long as a SEASON + specific occasion are evident, you're good to go.
NOTE: a bit photo heavy!
I'm sharing a trio of Christmas cards I made during the September Crop and Create event. They all feature products from The Stamps of Life:
Merry Flip-it Fun Interactive Card die: This die set creates an A2 (4.25 x 5.5 inches) Flip-it Card with a fancy shape in the middle, layering dies for the panels and a Merry word die.
Christmas Fun Paper Pad, Merry Clear Stamp Bundle, Christmas Add-On Dies (and I will be honest: the paper didn't really resonate with me - just a bit too cutesy, but - they were part of the class, so I was a good student and used them. I plan to try this die with other papers/images at some point; it really is quite versatile).
Card 1
Our 'starter' card, the simplest of the three, where the 'Merry' is visible both on the outside and inside.
Card 2: Front
This one shows the Flip-it die in action, where the 'Merry' section flips to the second sentiment.
Card 2: Inside
Card 3 - Front
This was the 'advanced' version and includes three inside panels, designed to leave space for writing a message which, in the version above, would likely need to be placed on the back of the card. A bit more fiddly, but still very easy to make.
Card 3: Inside Panels
Looking forward to seeing your SEASONAL themed cards in the gallery!
Last time we ran this challenge, we had close to 70 awesome entries; let's see if we can surpass that!

Wow, Carol! What a fun die set. And card designs. You did a fantastic job on these cards. I can see where the die is so versatile and can be used year round. Thanks for sharing and delighting!
What a creative die set used for these beautiful cards Carol! Such a fun 'flip' and lovely adornments of trees and presents with a pretty mix of holiday patterns on your DP! Julia xx
