I'm curious to see what everyone does for today's letter prompt... "X" is definitely a challenge! Happily, I found a nice new packet of X-Press It blending card in my stash.
YOUR TURN: Create a holiday card using the letter "X" as your prompt.
INSPIRATION WORDS:
X-Press It blending card, Xmas, xyron
(let me know if you can think of any others)
Stamps: Tied Up With String

I like the way you made the candy canes into an X, Beccy! I don't have any X-Press blending paper and I wasn't crazy about using Xmas on my card (even though I now know that X in Greek really stands for Christ). So I found a stamp set in my stash that had Xs and Os for hugs and kisses so that's what I used for my X card. Love your mix of designer paper. Candy canes hung on Christmas trees always make Christmas so festive! Thanks for the inspiration!
Love your card and love your "X"s, Beccy! I used "X" Marks the Spot. About to enter it now. :-D
Love the card and the canes cross love it

Smart thinking, Beccy. xoxoxo
I had my X card ready for hours and just waited of the start sign to post it.
Yours is as always great, Beccy!
I think I'm going to have to get quite creative for this one!!
X was a tricky one, but I did 'xtra' xx
X-tra cute card, love the dimension your shading gives the candy canes!
Yes, this is an X-tra challenging theme ... I might have to stick with my blending card too :)
Xtra Xcited to show off my x!
So beautiful! Love the X for the crossed candy canes. Edwina brown
I couldn't think of anything for 'x' but the ladies over at ABC Christmas Challenge are using 'x marks the spot... lots of twine crossing over on cards, much like the lovely candy canes on your card! Have a good one... Megan
Its very nice card!
Great for X - I think you already know what I used - an Xylophone---- I like that added button on your card - Love me a candy cane in some Hot Chocolate or to make a peppermint mocha - YUM
Beccy, I really had to stretch for the X and also the Z challenge. Am looking forward to posting them since I think that they might make you smile... and possible even chuckle!
PS Your X card is lovely. I am curious... what is Xpress It Blending? Sounds intriguing.
Hi Kathy. "Xpress It blending card" is just a brand of card board made specifically for alcohol markers. It has a coating that allows the ink to blend easier and gives a slightly longer open time. Sorry it's not more interesting.
Cheers,
Beccy
Lovely card, Beccy...I thought the candycanes were your X...so you used 2 times X!!!

Oooh your card is just so beautiful x
Beautiful card, Beccy! We're getting into the tough letters now! I like your intrepretation of X. I went with xoxo. Looking forward to seeing your Y and Z. There aren't many days left - I'll be sad when it's over :-( as I've made tons of cards this month, thanks to your alphabet inspiration.
Good thinking of having the candy canes in a X form..I also like your background pattern paper...well done and tfs
Pretty!
Hmmm, I just thought of another way to use the X: cross-stitching. Now all I need to do is find some time to actually make a card...
