Shiny Stocking

Since we missed the last day of school to play in the snow, instead of rushing to get the teacher/staff cards done that day before pickup time, I got to take it easy and spread them out over the holidays ;) The last of them are being posted tonight, and then I'll be moving on from the Christmas theme till next fall...

Can I just say, I LOVE this Honeycomb Hive Die!!! It's a great way to showcase designer papers while breaking up the pattern a bit, and adding a lot of interest to a card front. I used the Encore Silver ink instead of the Smoky Slate (on the stocking, and sponged on the cardstock edges under the ribbon), and the Basic Gray two-tone ribbon was perfect to add some contrast.



Challenges I used:
