For my Sunday share, here are the rest of the cards using the Open Sleigh stamp set. I stuck to the Riding Hood Red colour palette, used the stamp off technique to make the stockings on either side of the middle appear much lighter. The centre stocking was stamped on a piece of Very Vanilla card stock then cut out by hand before adhering it to the Apothecary Accents framelits.
I stamped the motif top and bottom to “frame” the greeting.
For this card, I tried to think outside the box! We have a new Ticket Duo Builder punch – page 182 in the Annual Catalogue. I punched lots of “bricks” with the teeny tiny ticket part of the punch and “brick laid” them for the chimney. Santa’s just landed on the roof and is making his way down the chimney! I punched 2 hearts with the Full Heart punch, and after a few snips, transformed them into Santa’s boots. For the trim above his boots, I used the word window punch. Santa is obviously filling the stocking – but as he’s stuck in the chimney, he’s left the stocking behind! 😉
The insides are clean and simple. If you’re making alot, the cards have to be quick and easy!
Off to an all day Christmas crop today. What are you doing? Christmas shopping perhaps?
Well, whatever it is, have a good one!!
My favourite is the one at the top – those stockings look great in the framelit die. X
