Stockings | All Dressed Up Stamps

I made this card for the new challenge at the CRAFT Challenge blog. The theme this week is Christmas presents.

Our sponsors are:

I used a digital stamp “Stockings” from All Dressed Up Stamps. The digital stamp was released just last month. So, check it out.

Now, lets talk about this card.

Measurements

• You need a piece of white cardstock measuring 15,5 centimeters by 21 centimeters. Score at the 21 centimeter side at 10,5 centimeters. You have now your card base.
• A piece of green cardstock to die-cut from
• A piece of 200-gram DCP paper to print your digital image on.

Digital stamp and coloring.

I printed my image on 200-gram DCP paper. I colored the image with my alcohol markers.

Die-cutting the frame

I wanted to have a frame on my card to put the stockings on. So, I die-cut this frame out of green card stock. The die itself is not exactly a frame die. But it gives on the inside a stitched border. I cut along this stitched border to get it a frame. I put the frame with some foam tape on the base of the card.

Finishing the card

I glue the stockings on the frame and put some foam tapes on the socks. I missed some bling, so I decided to glue some golden stars on the leaves and on the base card.

I stamped my sentiment “Merry Christmas” with black ink and the card is finished.
