And this combo screamed Christmas to me, so you know I'm happy with it :)
Kaiser Crafts's Be Merry has all of these colors so I didn't have to look any further! And, since I hadn't inked up and cut out my new PTI Stocking Prints set and dies, I went to work with them. I used a very simple layout that doesn't need much 'splaining. After I die cut and stamped my stockings, I "hung" them on a Dark Chocolate baker's twine line and added some buttons in between. The sentiment is from the set, but I cut out my flag with Lil' Inker Designs' flag die. It works a charm for these flags--quick and easy and perfect every time! You need one..really, you do!
