Hanging Stockings.

Time again for the girls in the Christmas Card Club to show our next Christmas cards. Kate set the theme  and has chosen Children at Christmas.   I have chosen a digi image by Mo's Digital Pencil called Hanging Stockings. Instead of colouring it though I decided to leave it as black/white and based the card colours around it. Hope you like it Kate.

I used white card stock to make the base card and mounted black card stock on the front. The die cut borders around the image are Spellbinders Marvelous Squares which I have cut in red and black. The poinsettia die is by Ultimate Crafts 'Rustic Christmas'. The sentiment is by tonic Studios 'Modern Merry Christmas'.

Oh Valery, this is the sweetest image. I love the kids hanging their stockings and the dog with his. I like the black and red frames and the SB die you used. Happy Mother's Day.

A great idea to leave the sweet image uncoloured Mrs A, it contrasts beautifully with the red/black design of your card.
