It’s time to start creating 2026’s holiday cards. Following are the first eight samples for this year’s Christmas Card Buffet.
In a normal year our “buffets” have been held on the 2nd Wednesday of August, September, October and November. However…..this year is way off the normal beaten track! I was traveling from mid-August to early September so our second buffet for this year will be on Wednesday, October 14th. Please email (blythe@stampingwithblythe.com) or text (blythek@mac.com) your choices to me by October 8th so I can have your individual packets ready on the 14th. The following three Buffets are scheduled for October 14th, November 11th and December 2nd. Yes, December 2nd. Yes there’s been a change of the October and November dates to the 2nd Wednesday of each month (and that’s where they should have been in the first place!). That was my original plan and I got a tad off of that plan when this year’s gatherings began. Blame it on that semi-extended vacation we took!
Fee: $25, 4 cards, 1-4 p.m., my home in Avimor (Boise), email me for address. Class size limited to 8.
I’ll be adding 3 or 4 additional cards for each of the next buffets, obviously upping your card choices. Please have your RSVP and card choices to me one week prior to the class date. So, don’t forget….I’ll be adding 3-4 cards each month. 4 cards have just been added for October’s gathering. RSVP by October 8th.
Be sure to check out NEW CARDS 9-12 at the end of the card photos.
Questions? Please don’t hesitate to ask, no matter how unimportant or silly you think they are. Choose a total of 4 cards in 3 ways: 2 of 1 card and 2 of another; 3 of 1 card and 1 of another; all 4 of one card.

We’ll be stamping in my home as in previous years. 1-4 pm-ish. I’ll have a few light holiday (yes!) snacks and music to put you into the holiday mood. Your individual packets will contain all precut pieces and bling/accessories for your chosen cards. I’m really looking forward to seeing you all as we get your wonderful cards started for this upcoming holiday season.
Remember: Make a card ** Send a card ** Make someone’s day!
