Vintage Christmas Stocking Card
Posted by: | Comments
Another project for my annual Christmas Card class coming up in 2 weeks:
Today’s feature is a card made from the large stocking die. I was able to make it a traditional top-hinged card by folding cardstock in half and running it through the Big Shot without cutting the top off. I also made sure I sized it to fit into our medium square envelopes.
Supplies used:
Stamps – Bells & Boughs
Paper & Ink – Riding Hood Red, Sahara Sand, Very Vanilla, Lucky Limeade, More Mustard and Early Espresso inks
Accessories - Big Shot, Holiday Stocking die, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Vanilla satin ribbon, velvet stitched ribbon, linen thread, mini jingle bells, Decorative Label punch, dimensionals
TTFN!

Welcome Christmas…a little early!

“Welcome Christmas”!
Okay, it might be a little early to welcome Christmas just yet, but I couldn’t help it – it’s the name of this great stamp set!
I love the family scene image in this set and I love how it’s the main focus on this card. I can feel the snow falling around me as I peek in on this family’s holiday moment through the window.
This card will be one of the projects for my 8th Annual Christmas Card Class in October. I have finished all the projects and will be posting them here over the next week. Check back daily for more projects.
