The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there!

My project today is a bit of a departure from my typical crafting style. I am not really certain who’s style I was channeling, but I love how this project wrapped up. For my card, I used a Recollections stamp set that I’ve had since I started card making, and stamped out black and white images onto the side of my card. I didn’t want them to literally overlap each other, but I wanted it feel like the holiday images were overlapped.
For my featured stocking (there is another one tucked into the black and white images after all) I went for a different feel. I stamped out an Altenew stocking and fussy cut the image out. Then using some red flocking, I added it to the image. Finally, using my snow pen, I added textured fluff from the pen, and heat set it. I adhered the socking to the card using some 3d adhesive squares and a bit of string to make it feel like the stocking was hung from the top of the card.
I hope you enjoyed my project for this month’s Hop.

I had never tried flocking, but had this sample of red flocking lying around for years. I figured it was time to try it.

I doesn’t feel as nice as it looks. I think I need better adhesive under it. Thank you for stopping by!

I just love this card! It’s so classy with the black & white and a key pop of red. So wonderful and probably pretty easy to do up a bunch if you need cards quick!
