Hello and Welcome, all my stamping friends! Today’s blog, Stockings Hung By The Merriest of Trees, I’m calling our family room card. Yes there’s a lot of putsy work in this card but it goes quickly because there are multiples of dies for die cutting. What could be better than sitting in front of a fire looking at your beautiful tree and lights. Maybe a cup of hot cocoa or your favorite beverage. I’ve combined the Stampin’ Up!® Merriest Trees Bundle & the Saint Nicholas Bundle.

Start by stamping the trees using Shaded Spruce cardstock and stamp off each time. Then full strength ink for the inside fout times, if die cutting my way or just do one, your choice. Next I stamped the ornaments four times using Lemon Lolly, Real Red, Azure Afternoon & Garden Green ink. I also used the same colors for stamping the packages. Place Basic White card front inside the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut Emboss Machine. Adhere to the Shaded Spruce layer & adhere to card base with the Earthen Elegance floor piece. Die cut all the other pieces and adhere together. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere tree, fireplace & wreath to embossed white layer.

Stamp sentiment in Shaded Spruce & Santa using Memento Black ink adhere to Shaded Spruce layer & to card base.
