If you can bring yourself to look forward to Christmas before summer has even started, now is the time to start preparing submissions Christmas issues of stamping magazines!

At Rubber Stamp Madness the first theme for the November and December issue this year is Peace on Earth. The second theme is Magnets - the only requirement is that what ever is sent will magnetically stick to a refrigerator. The deadline for both themes is June 20, 2008. For more information take a look at the submissions page on the Rubber Stamp Madness website.

Over at Stampington, the Christmas theme continues with an invitation for stampers to send in their most special Holiday projects. The deadline is June 15, 2008. More information can be found on the submission pages.

Stamper's Sampler also have a call for seasonal projects. The theme is Holiday Happenings and readers are invited to send cards, wrapping paper, holiday décor, ornaments, quick and easy gifts,and anything else Holiday related. The second theme is Family Newsletters and readers are invited to send in ideas for the most creative ways of sending out the yearly recaps. They can be flat or dimensional. The deadline for these two themes is May 15, 2008 so just enough time to enter if you get going now!! For more information follow the Stampington link above.

Scrap and Stamp have the theme of Make It Merry and are asking for submissions of holiday cards. The deadline for this is June 18, 2008 and more information can be found on their editorial calendar.
