June Rudolph Days

This is a new to me challenge to help me get my Christmas cards made throughout the year so I don't stress come December.  Do you like to do that too?  You can go to June Rudolph Days and play along...it is a Christmas card challenge and it is anything goes...so any kind of Christmas card you want to make.


I had this NBUS stamp from MFT called Filled with Joy and a tree stamp from a Decora set called Merry Christmas...I had never used that tree before and thought it would look perfect for the backdrop of this little girl holding the Christmas stocking.
I paper pieced the stocking with red dotted paper.
 
Heart Hugs, friends!

She looks so hopeful for Santa to fill her stocking. This is a sweet card and I love how you made the tree in the background.

Welcome to The Rudloph Days Challenge. So glad you found us!

Your card is very sweet. The little girl clutching the stocking is adorable. I am sure we all remember clutching our stockings on Christmas morning!
