Another use of my Country Living Holiday Collection Kit! This stocking can be used as a Gift Card Holder AND a Tree Ornament! I used Whisper White Vellum Cardstock for my stocking and stamped the large and small snowflakes with White Craft ink. Be sure to let that dry well (I was in a hurry and used my heat tool!) While this was drying, I also stamped my enjoy with Riding Hood Red ink on a piece of scrap vellum cardstock - so it could dry as well! When the red was dry, I used a Black Stampin' Write Marker to ink and stamp my to and from - then set it aside to dry. (NOTE: Vellum is not as porous as regular cardstock and therefore even your classic ink pads take time to dry once stamped.) I cut a piece of the Ski Slope DSP and used my Scallop Border Punch on the bottom for the top of my stocking. I stamped the greeting with black and used the Whisper White Tafetta Ribbon at the top. After the ink dried on my stocking, I used my Crafter's Tool Kit -to pierce holes around the stocking and my needle with Silver Cord to lace the stocking together, then adhered the top to the stocking. I used my 1 3/4" Circle Punch and punched out "enjoy", then inserted a Clear Rhinestone Brad in the center of the "o". I then adhered that to the heel of the stocking with a Dimensional. I used the piercing tool to make a hole in the top right of my stocking and Silver Cord to make a hanger for the stocking.
EVERYTHING USED IN THIS PROJECT CAME FROM THE COUNTRY LIVING HOLIDAY COLLECTION STAMPIN' KIT except for: Crafter's Tool Kit - 1 3/4" Circle Punch - Scallop Border Punch and the Whisper White Vellum Cardstock, and black ink.
Sunday afternoons are great for stampin' don't you agree? It is not too late to make some Christmas Cards and the COUNTRY LIVING HOLIDAY COLLECTION KIT is great for this too! I made this card using that kit. I started with a card base of Old Olive cardstock, and a mat of Whisper White cardstock- the 1" strip on the top is from the Ski Slope DSP (also included in the kit). I used my Scallop Edge Border Punch on the bottom of this strip. I stamped my snowflake, enjoy, and star (from the kit) with my White Craft ink spot and then embossed with white embossing powder on scraps of Pacific Blue, Riding Hood Red, and Summer Sun cardstock. I then used my 1 3/4" Circle Punch to make my ornaments.
