Welcome to the All Occasion Card Challenge! For those that are new to our challenge, this is a personal challenge to encourage us to get those cards made and mailed!!
What is an all occasion? Well, just that- pretty much any card that you need to create and mail- for ex. birthdays, anniversaries, get well, sympathy, thinking of you, special holidays (Valentines, Easter, 4th of July, etc.) .
This challenge allows you to list the cards that you need (again, to keep yourself accountable) and we hope by doing so, it will help you mail the cards!
2). As you create and post to your gallery throughout the month, add AOCC22 to your keywords and if you are able, copy the URL for your card post to SCS and post to this forum so we can give you some comment "love"
If you are unable to keep up with posting to the gallery, that is fine as well (I still have over 100 cards created that I have not posted yet). This year, let's just note if we made our goal- so again, we can encourage one another
Thanks it!! Simple but an accountable way to help us get those cards out in the mail. Don't forget- use AOCC22 in your keywords when you post so we can all check on the gallery and leave a comment (I will need everyone's assistance in helping to comment )
I hope you will join us for 2022 and spread the word about our challenge so we can continue to encourage one another to bless others with love through our small pieces of art!
For the month of January: I need 1 masculine + 6 female birthday cards + 1 anniversary card. For my stash, I need 5 Christmas cards + 1 thinking of you/ friend card.
I will fill out what I need as each month arrives if that's okay.

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, doing some catching up as well. This is an end of January birthday card for a friend needed. It is in the mail!

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, from new to old and hopefully, doing some catching up! This is a birthday card for my husband...much needed and already delivery!
I should probably get back into this challenge. I have been so late the past 2 months. I fell off the motivation wagon LOL after Christmas cards.
I helped my sister @CreepsMom and @PeggyV get their Christmas cards done and now I'm lazy.
I have mine all done well ahead of time ...now birthdays and Anniversaries are late.
6 Birthday and 1 Anniversary for SCS friends
6 Birthday for family

Hi Carlene and Vikki Jo! So thrilled that you are joining again and I hope to be able to visit each of your galleries soon! Dave (my hubby) and I are still in the middle of our remodeling and unfortunately, my shoulders have been taking the brunt of the overhead sanding of the ceiling, lol! Hard to type but I am so thankful that you are sharing and creating, sweet friends!
January's mailings were done with most of my "in-stock" cards (many of which I still have not had the time to post to SCS or my blog.
I did create this Hope and A Future card recently that I may use as an encouragement card for a gentleman in our church but I also may hold onto for a graduation card later this year.
I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, catching up on some old challenges as well. It is a much thinking of you card needed to replace a January birthday card!
This card is for an SCS friend who's birthday I missed in January and who's Teapot Challenge I missed May of 2019. The theme is "thinking of you" since I decided her birthday was so many weeks ago, I wanted her to know I was thinking about her on her birthday and after as it became more and more belated! In addition, This theme was an option for her Teapot Challenge as well!
Hi Everyone! I am sharing a card that I designed a while ago using SC407 for the layout and several stamps, dies and paper from my stash (sorry to be away from SCS for a while, my hubby was diagnosed with a glioblastoma on March 9th and went to be with the Lord on Sunday, April 24th. The memorial service is on May 22nd and I am working on the details - transferring our old photos to digital, creating a slideshow, etc.)
I am so thankful that you have been participating in the challenge thread here at SCS. I hope to be able to be more active after the end of May....
Here is another one that I created using a digi that I had colored and in my stash since 2019 along with retired papers, ribbon, etc. I am hoping to mail this out this month for an encouragement/ thinking of you card.
I am playing my "Challenge Catch-up" cardmaking and catching up on a few Easter cards that I forgot to post! This is a much needed Easter card for my youngest daughter and her family, which includes my little 3-year old granddaughter.
This is a much needed card for Father's Day in June for my son-in-law. It depicts how great he is with my granddaughter, Sienna, in taking her all kinds of summer fairs, petting zoos, etc. where she has been introduced to all kinds of animals, including farm animals from the time she was three months old. He researches what's going on or available within a 50-mile radius and off they go!
My primary goal here was to complete challenges for the current VSN challenges, but I also need this card as I have several birthdays to catch up on for June.
