Today’s card features the Sending Cheer Bundle. These fun images are great for tags or cards. My project is a card featuring the lovely stocking.
Bundle
The Sending Cheer Bundle is one that is a bit of whimsy, really pretty, and versatile. As I said at the top, these images are great for making gift tags or cards. This card is really quick and easy. The matching dies for Sending Cheer cut the stocking in two parts. This makes it so easy to add the white cuff. I opted to use just card stock instead of stamping or using DSP for the stocking body.
The holly leaves and berries are stamps included in the set. They are then die cut with matching dies. The sentiment is also included in the stamp set. I really love this one. The mix of fonts is great as is the sweet sentiment. It is embossed with White Embossing powder to help it pop against the Cherry Cobbler card stock.
Paper
The card base is Cherry Cobbler card stock with a layer of Basic White. This helps the DSP to really stand out. The lovely plaid is from the Joyful Designer Series Paper. It says Christmas to me. (Sadly this paper is sold out, however there are several others still available that will work perfectly. You may have some in your stash.) I went a bit out of the norm on the “mantle” . The wood look gold piece is from the same Joyful DSP. I saw it and immediately thought it would be perfect for the mantel to hang the stocking. It is simply a 1/2″ tall strip.
Finishes
There are not a lot of extras needed on this card. Of course I had to have bling. So I added some of the Iridescent Pearls scattered around. The sentiment is die cut, it is very subtle, with a die from the Christmas Classics Dies. It was the perfect length and has rounded corners. I think it makes the sentiment look a little more classy.
