Hi friends, the colors of my Stocking card was influenced by The Color Cube #206 in the Winter category. I love these colors together and I was told at the stores this year for Christmas. I do more bolder colors!

So with this being a 5 X 7 card, I grabbed a panel and ran it partially through the P6 using the Pierced Snowflakes Panel. Then I moved it over to do the other side. You can also have the cutting plate not covering it all where you don’t want any piercing or a cut. I figure the center will be covered with the stocking. Trim the panel down to 4.75 X 6.75 inches.

Next I blended Simon Says Pawsitively Ink- Heather and Twilight, then splattered on Dr. PH Martin white diluted down a little.

Die cut out the Build a Stockings Dies from MFT- Blue Breeze and Blue Yonder, Spellbinders-Lilac Blossom and Purple Mist, and C9 Lilac.l

Then with the smallest Bow from Beautiful Bows Die, die cut out with the papers used from above.

The top of the middle stocking I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiment from the Sentiment Strips:Christmas Stamp set by masking off the “Sending You” Die cut it out with the Build a Stocking Die.

Lastly was the Large Joy Shadow Die, cut out from White Glossy and Metallic Silver Cardstock. I did cut the shadow out an additional three times more for dimension.

I added 3D foam behind all the stockings and also silver thread to make them look as though they are handing. Just tape the thread onto the back of the panel.

Adhere to the panel a 5 X 7 cards base with liquid glue. Then attach the bows, on the bows I added matching Pearls. Lastly was to add white highlight to the images.

Thanks for stopping by and stay crafty!
