I thought that a sweet little stocking card would fit the bill for Jen's challenge today...and used the Flourishes TTC of getting out my plaid. Details on the blog: http://flourishes.org/blog/
Stamped the images in Tuxedo Black multiple times, coloring the plain CS one. Sponged with Dandelion, Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa. Paper pieced the stockings then matted on Cherry Cobbler and mounted to Neenah card. Used the Scor-Pal to keep my Cutter Bee in line then added faux stitching with a distress marker. Added the puffy paint (as I heat it reminds me of toasting marshmallows!), the sentiment and done.
Thanks Jen and Katie for your inspiration. Thank you all for looking and have a peaceful day.
