1. Using the Squeeze Punch – square a licious (available in the UK in Jan 2010), punch out 8 scalloped squares of assorted decorative backing papers and glue them to the front of a 145mmsq white base card.

2. Using a black Memento ink pad, stamp the Christmas stocking from the Christmas clear stamp set 3 times onto white card, colour using ProMarkers and cut out.

3. Cut out a 90mmsq piece of white card, punch each corner using the 3 in 1 corner punch and wrap a length of gold thread around.

4. Mount this onto red card and trim-leaving a small border. Attach Christmas stockings to the panel using silicone glue for added dimension along with a printed greeting.

5. Mount panel onto green card, trim leaving a small border and attach centrally to the base card. Add a ribbon and shape the bottom edge of the card using the Apron Lace Border Punch (available in the UK in Jan 2010).

    I like the fact that this design uses non-traditional Christmas colours & still looks festive :)

    Fabby project Sharon – those punches are lush and colouring with those Pro Marker “bad boys” is great, as always.
