Hi, friends! I'm back with another Christmas card made with products from The Stamps of Life, and this one has a fun TWIST to go along with it! Not only is it a card, but it's also a handmade gift--and ornament--that fits into the card and can be taken out be the recipient! Take a peek...
I used the *NEW* stockings4Christmas, patterns4stockings, and Stocking Dies to create this card. I also used a circle die from the Hello My Friend Dies and some vellum from my stash--I have SO much because I purchased a bunch over a year ago and it just stays in my drawer. It needed to come out and be used! ;)
The sentiment is from the stockings4Christmas set. I LOVE the font and it was perfect as a banner across the bottom of the card. To balance the sentiment out, I added a banner of wood banner pieces, inked and heat embossed with Powdered Sugar Ink, to the top.
I am REALLY happy about how this card turned out! I hope you like it, too! I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)
I'm entering my card/gift into these fabulous challenges~
(That vellum--it needed to be used! Plus cardstocks, as well.)

Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends! I hope you take some time today to join in the fun with these fabulous challenges! I'll be back again later with more paper crafts. Until then, HUGS and Merry stamping! :)

Super sympa Mynnette, joli idée de 2 en 1, biz
Mynn, this is so adorable! And I just love that the recipient gets not just a cute card but an ornament also! Genius!
A great idea to include the ornament on your card. The stocking is so cute and your card is lovely. Thanks so much for joining us at Christmas Card Challeges this week.
