Christmas Stocking Place Name Cards

Hello my friends, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with your family and friends and before we welcome in 2025, I'm sharing my Christmas Eve "running out of time" craft session to make place name cards for my Boxing Day Party using Simon Says Stamp Stocking Gift Card Holder DieCember 2024 dies which were perfect for these quick and easy last minute makes along with Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Holiday Knit Layering Stencil and Sizzix Alphanumeric Tiny Type Upper Thinlits.

I die-cut the stockings, holly leaves and berries from Simon Says Sage and Schoolhouse Red cardstock and the cuffs, toes and heels from Simon Says White Pawsitively Velvet cardstock. 

I pounced White Gesso through Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Holiday Knit Layering Stencil using a mini round blending tool.

I shaded the edges of the stockings with Scorched Timber Distress Ink using a tiny blending tool and fixed the cuffs, heels and toes in place with Distress Collage Medium.

I added shading to the die-cut holly leaves using Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink and Scorched Timber Distress Ink and fixed the leaves and berries in place with Distress Collage Medium.

I punched a hole in the top of the stockings using my Crop-a-dile, added Red/White Twine and a layer of Glossy Accents to the berries.

 I die-cut the letters to spell out the names from Simon Says Sage and Schoolhouse Red cardstock using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Tiny Type Upper Thinlits, fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium and added a highlight to the berries using a Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen. 

I'll be back tomorrow to share my favourite makes from 2024.

Hugs Kath xxx
