Sparkles Christmas Challenge 171 has just gone live and Caz has chosen Christmas Stocking as the theme for the month of May!
Finally, a chance to break out this this Woodware stamp set (Big Bubble Stocking) I ordered a while ago! I cut bubbles (Woodware Big Bubbles and Woodware Bubbles) from a piece of patterned paper as well as snippets of red and green. I think there must be another die that I should have bought because there were a lot of smaller bubbles needed to complete the stocking and I needed to pull out many other sets to try and find the right sized bubbles - time consuming and fiddly (ugh)!
Anyway not being a quitter, I finally finished the card and added this small "joy" sentiment (Reverse Confetti). Glossy Accents helped complete the "bubble" look I was after. The holly leaves were paper-pieced from a co-ordinating piece of patterned paper.
