Monday Montage - Christmas Card 2024


 


Do ya remember that time I was soooo late getting my Christmas cards (December 23!) that I didn’t post them until the new year??? You DON’T??? See the last few years … because I keep doing that!

This week’s Monday Montage is full of so many wonderful creations.

I used a retired set from last year … Night Divine. There were stamps and dies and I used them up, baby!







This multi-layered flip card is a template I have used several times this year. I love it!

I did cheat with the “DSP”. It actually isn’t Stampin’ Up paper AT ALL! I knew I was going to be making 100 of these (yes, yes … I am crazy!)! It is actually a roll of wrapping paper. Saved me a TON of time on stamping and embossing. Because, to be honest, this took a ton of time even withOUT doing that!

This is a photo my hubby and I had taken at the top of Machu Picchu last January. It was as magical as it looks … I honestly cried! What a wonderful bucket list item!! We talk about it all the time!













Here’s a pic so you can so all the lovely layers. Not sorry I attempted such a crazy creation … the feedback I’ve been getting from friends and family has really warmed my heart!
