I love the cozy colors of Fall - and the Color Hues challenge has two 'must have' colors for the season... I stretched them into Christmas, Sheri!
I may be all set for Christmas 2025, but there's always next year, right? It's never too early to get them started.
Even in the closeup it's hard to tell, but I promise you that my stocking
is indeed brown - in fact it's cut from Altenew's brown woodgrain paper!
The cuff and leaves were cut from watercolor paper and painted with
Distress reinkers. My sentiment is from PTI's 'Tis the Season and stamped
in CP's Icing on the Cake.
I adore this Penny Black Stocking Stuffer die set!

I've never seen this PB die set in action, and it is delightful! I love your background with the subtle ink blending and the embossing at the top of the panel. It's easy to see why you love this set. Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteDifferent and pretty. Love the cute stocking with your ink blending and embossing on the background panel.
ReplyDeleteWell now I have to go shopping for that die! Your card is fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteIt took a moment to catch it all but the embossing, ink blending and branch make the sweet stocking pop! Kudos
ReplyDeletePerfect. I love that soft shading in the background. Brown and orange make a great combination, lovely but unusual for Christmas xx
ReplyDeleteSweet and precious! Your stocking is indeed awesome. The colors were totally unexpected for a stocking, but you've made it work its magic
ReplyDeleteWhen I click for close up I can see the woodgrain paper. So cute! I'm all in for these warm and woodsy colors for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteGreat card!
ReplyDeleteHow clever and cute! Love the non-traditional colors; it looks very warm and cozy! Santa might just take it home with him instead of filling it!
ReplyDeleteI just found a new way to hang a stocking since we have NO chimney, mantle, or fireplace! CAS cuteness, Michele!
ReplyDeleteSo eyecatching, the colors make it so inviting.
ReplyDeleteI can see this sweet stocking hanging in a cozy little cabin in the woods! This is darling, Michele!
ReplyDeleteSweet, sweet Christmas card Michele and I absolutely LOVE that you used our orange and brown pairing for it...NEVER would have thought of doing that on my own! I'm definitely going to have to remember this one my friend...LOVE it!! And thanks so much for sharing with us at Color Hues!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love the Fall theme for your adorable Christmas stocking Michele. So creative and fun! xx
ReplyDeleteSo proud of you for being ready for this Christmas and now working on next. This is a beauty to add to that stash.
ReplyDeleteI could have sworn your stocking was made of felt, Michele. It's so cute hanging from the leafy branch.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely a fantastic stocking die, Michele, and I LOVE it in orange and brown! So original and fun! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteReady for Christmas 2025?! My hat is taken off to you, I'm usually well on the way but have been struck down with some bug so I am now a good 2 weeks behind!! Love the way you took the autumnal colours and went with a Christmas card, I can quite see why you like this set. Thanks for being so supportive of the Color Hues Challenge. :)
ReplyDeleteYou already probably know that I love non-traditional colored Christmas cards, but this card knocked my socks off! Pun intended. 😆. Always a pleasure to see what you are going to do with our colors at Color Hues, we appreciate your support! Take care!
