2015 Christmas Card #7

The showcase card over at CASE-ing Christmas was what gave me the idea of this design.

"God jul" means "Merry Christmas" in Norwegian - I die cut the letters using Dienamics dies. I cut them out using a wooden printed DP and thick cardboard. I stamped the stockings, using stamps from Panduro, onto scraps of DPs and punched the greeneries using a Martha Stewart punch. The background DP is from Kaisercraft. I used kraft for the panels. 3 green sequins were added and I was done!

This card is for these challenges:
1) CASE-ing Christmas - CASE #8
2) Rudolph Days - February
3) ABC Christmas Challenge - D is for Die Cuts
4) Crafting for all Seasons - #96 Die and/or Punches
5) Christmas Card Challenges - #12 Anything Goes
