Keeping 1 + 12 Alive in '25 - January

The 3rd of each month is a special day here on my blog - it's the day that Kelly (the founder of this series), Barb, and I share our One Plus Twelve cards. 

The idea is to use the same ONE stamp (not a set) each month to create a card. Sentiments can be used, too, if we choose.

We started this series in 2019, so this is our 7th year. These are the stamps I've used so far:

2019 - Unity Be the Best (an artsy dragonfly)

2020 - Unity Aleah Girl (a woman in a sweater)

2021 - Stampin' UP! Gather Together (a maple leaf)

2022 - Altenew Vintage Garden (a large flower)

2023 - Waffle Flower Little Painter (a small paint brush)

2024 - Altenew Pristine Peonies (a large flower) 

My ONE stamp this year is the bloom from the Gina K Modern Floral stamp set. It's going be a stretch for me, but I do like a good challenge.

I hope you'll keep an eye out on the 3rd of each month to see how I do with this ONE stamp this year. You'll also be able to see Barb's and Kelly's cards on Instagram as well as their blogs...

This will sure be fun to watch all year long. Yes, it would be a challenge for me to use this 12 ways, but for you, it will be fun! I love the layout on this one! Bring on 2025!

This is SO sweet! What a beautiful wee flower and the colors are dazzling! The lime green is actually a highlight of mine for this year - so fun to see it on your card! Perfect choice for keeping alive in 2025!
