The Stamping Up Only (SUO) challenge today is to use your favorite Christmas colors. Well, I'm traditional and like green and red. This card is very traditional, from the colors to the layout. It starts with a whisper white card, layered with real red and stockings punched out of Old Olive dsp using the stocking builder punch. I also stamped the center stocking in Real Red with the Stitched Stocking set and punched it out. There's a strip of Frosted Lodge dsp which reminds me of a mantle. The silver glimmer paper punched with the scallop trim border punch makes it look like the mantel is trimmed with a garland of tinsel. There's also silver glimmer paper on the heal, toe, and cuff of the center stocking and a rhinestone. All three stockings are popped up on dimensionals. Finally, mini jingle bells were attached using mini glue dots. The sentiment is from Christmas Greetings.
Happy Stamping! Mary
