Vintage Stockings

Hello, stamping friends! Happy Friday!  This will be quick as we are having our family Thanksgiving tomorrow and I am making creamed mushrooms!  Did you know the area of PA in which I live is the mushroom capital of the world?  I am sure you didn't!  Anyway, we don't eat them regularly but we do like them for the holidays! Okay, enough about mushrooms! I have a CAS Christmas card today, it fulfills the CAS Colour & Sketches sketch as well as the Inspired By challenge of these cute stockings:

I knew just the stamp I wanted to use for this card....the October Kit of the Month from Unity had some adorable stockings!  Here we go:


This was super fun and easy! I stamped the stockings on Crumb Cake cardstock in Misty Moonlight ink and fussy-cut them out, then sponged them with Pecan Pie ink for a vintage look.  The sentiment is from Greetings of the Season (my new favorite), stamped in Night of Navy on some Country Woods DSP:



For some extra interest, I embossed just the lower portion of the card with the Distressed Tile embossing folder, I really like how it adds a vintage feel!  I also added a Crumb Cake star that I enhanced with a gold Wink of Stella pen, as well as some Natural Tones Linen Thread in Night of Navy too.  More Greetings of the Season on the inside:

I haven't counted yet, but I am getting close to the number of Christmas cards I need to send out this year!  How about you?  Have you started your cards yet....the holidays will be here before we know it!  Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!
