CAS Christmas ~ May challenge with Trina

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...friends, this month Trina is our hostess and she wants to see stockings on our CAS Christmas card for the May Challenge!
I pulled out a favorite Verve stamp set called Jolly Jingles.
I taped off part of the card and did some sponging, then added the sentiment and the stockings.
Won't you join us this month of May and get a jump start on your Christmas cards for this year?

Heart Hugs, friends!

Love the gently shaded background and the fun font on the sentiment. Those stockings are so cute with their curly toes. Look like a one layer card. Fantastic!
