Big on Christmas SC191

Happy Monday! Schwooo, looks like I barely got this one in on Monday! lol! I started this card yesterday for the Splitcoast Sketch Challenge #191, but it was going nowhere so I abandoned it for Beate's sketch card down below. Decided I'd better finish it up today, and this was as good as it was going to get! lol!

I did have the idea early on to make the cross piece open up, but then I wasn't sure what to put inside! I had a Top Note scrap left over laying on my desk, so I just went with that.


I hope everyone had a super Labor Day weekend! At least we only have a 4-day work week now! Whoo! Hoo! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have you stamped something today?

sweet! forgot to say YES, I already stamped something! I woke up at 4:15 not able to go back to sleep because I HAD to make a card that was burning in my head (not something so spectacular, but needed)
