Stampin Up Stitched Stocking

Today’s card was designed for the ladies who attended my Stampin’ Getaway.  This is one of my favorites!!! Although I  feel like my photo didn’t do it justice… its a beautiful card and the stocking just pops right off the embossed tin foil.  Love it!

To make this card you’ll need old olive card stock, cherry cobbler card stock, whisper white card stock and some tin foil.  I folded an 11 x 4-1/4″ piece of old olive in half.  Next, I layered a 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of cherry cobbler.  Lastly, I cut a piece of tin foil and ran it through my Big Shot in the snowflakes textured embossing folder.  This is how I achieved that gorgeous background. Words of caution… the tin foil is very fragile when you take it out of your embossing folder.  So be patient.  I used sticky strip to adhere it to the cherry cobbler.

My small rectangles start with a 3-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ piece of old olive.  Next, I layered 3-1/2″ x 2-1/2″ piece of cherry cobbler.  I finished it with a 3-1/4″ x  2-1/4″ piece of whisper white.  I stamped my Merry Christmas in old olive. To make this fun stocking I used a cherry cobbler classic ink pad and the stitched stocking stamp set.  I then used the stocking builder punch to punch it out.  Yep, that’s right!  No cutting!  Woo Hoo!  I also punched the stocking pieces out of silver glimmer paper.  This card is just as pretty without the eyelets and jingle bell.  To finish this fun stocking I added a jewel rhinestone to the center decoration on my stocking.  Presto!
