Monday Montage Week #156


Welcome to Monday Montage! We are so excited you are here and  hope you enjoy the projects we have for you today! 

I have two cards to share with you today, one that is stepped up a bit and one that is fairly simple, and I used the same stamps and colors for both of them! 

Without further ado, here they are!





I bought the First Frost Stamp Set and the coordinating dies ages ago, but with all of the holiday stamping I was doing August through December, I have never pulled this set out! I am so glad I finally did, because I love it! I love the depth and texture of the flowers that comes with just inking and stamping once because they are Distinkive stamps. 
What are Distinktive Stamps you ask?  Distinktive Stamps are stamps that give you photo-realistic images that have a special texture for added depth and dimension in a single step! And they are only available from Stampin' Up! Cool, right?



The Birch Background stamp was perfect for this card! And a few Clear Epoxy Droplets added some interest! And I love, love, love the beautiful background die from the Stitched Labels Dies!!


For this card, I used a simple masking technique so that the yellow flowers and greenery look like they are behind the pink flowers!

The New Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration Start Today!

Today's the day! The new Stampin' Up! Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration start today! There are so many fun, new products that are great for many occasions! How many of you are already thinking about Valentine's Day? I am!



This Valentine card is headed to Australia for my daughter, so I wanted to make it early to ensure that is gets there in time!


I used the Heartfelt Bundle #151292 (which includes the Heart Felt Stamp Set and the Heart Punch Pack-bundled to save 10%) from the new Mini Catalog and I paired it with The Gang's All Meer Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set #152294 that I was able to get free with a $50 purchase!

Stampin' Blends were perfect for coloring in the darling meerkats. Here is a close-up of the little cuties:




This card was easy to make and is very mailable-especially if you leave off the bow to make it perfectly flat!


Thanks for stopping by!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!! I am so excited for 2020! I think a lot of great things will happen this year and decade! 

To celebrate, here is my first card of the new year!
I saw the Lily Pad Dies that are part of the upcoming Stampin' Up! Sale-a-Bration offerings, and I thought that the dies could also be used for succulents! I paired one of the lilypad dies with the cup die from the Cup of Cheer dies to make this card. It came together so quickly and I love the modern feel of this card.

The Cup of Cheer dies and the coordinating stamp set, Cup of Christmas, are only available through tomorrow!


And get excited, because Sale-a-Bration starts January 3rd!!
