3 cute little Stockings hung up ready for Santa
Once I'd made one Christmas card today I got my Mojo back to make another one. I really love my little Peachy Keen stamps and I've been looking forward to using them on a Christmas card again so this time I did stockings. I used a white crd and matted it with a cocoa brown colour card to which I border punched with a scallop border punch. I then matted that onto some plaid card and tied a green chiffon bow around it (my mum sent me this ribbon, I do love the way it ties it's very pretty). I then used my Cricut "Simply Charmed" catridge to cut out the stockings. I used the shadow/blackout feature to stop it from cutting out the face as I wanted to stamp that. So I stamped it and coloured in the eyes with a white gel pen. I then decorated the stockings with a mini button on each tied with twine. To finish I used my Close to the heart sentiments set to stamp the Merry Christmas. I think this is my favourite so far, Greg loved it too, it's very cute and cheerful!
