Merry Monday #94 Use a stocking




This week's Merry Monday challenge is to use a stocking on your Christmas card.  I am using a stamp set from Gina K. Designs called Blessed is the Season.  I stamped the image with Delicata Golden Glitz ink.  I love this rich, beautiful ink!  I, also, inked the edges of a piece of ivory card stock with Golden Glitz ink to be the layering piece under the red embossed card stock.  I topped it all off with a beautiful golden mesh ribbon and bow and pearl embellishments.

  3. LOVE everything about this card! I guess I never thought of a stocking being elegant, but this card sure is! I love your mesh bow, the pearls on the stocking, and even how you made it look like you have gold cardstock under your red layer...clever! :0)
