Create4Fun Challenge

This week on Create4Fun it was my turn to provide the sketch.  I've tried to keep the layers to a minimum, at this busy time of the year I don't have the heart to faff on with loads of layers or intricate sketches. This is also my first DT card for Stampavie, I have never posted in Wordpress before so I hope I don't mess up their blog when I go and add this - yikes!!stampavie-stocking-1

I have used this adorable Gillian Roberts Christmas Stocking stamp, so cute and perfect for a little one's first Christmas.  I was a brave girl and cut into some Magnolia papers, they really are delish, love the texture on them and such brilliant quality too.

I used a doily for the layer instead of DP for a change - Bev's gone doily crazy this week (guess who was mooching and found a box full of them last weekend lol).stampavie-stocking-2

Recipe:
Stamps: Gillian Roberts Christmas Stocking (on sale 40% off at The Hobby House) , sentiment HOTP
Papers: Magnolia
Tools: EK Success border punch, Nestibilities, SU Word Window punch
Embellies: Doily, ribbon, pearls from stash, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, bobble trim from The Hobby House.


Thanks for stopping by,
