STEP IT UP SUNDAY, Stitched Stockings Step-Up...

Today I have a KISS (Keep it Simple Stamper) Christmas card for you as well as a version to step it up a bit.  If you have a lot of Christmas cards to make, choosing a simple design will save you a lot of time (not to mention stress!)  This first card is so easy - four stamps, 2 card stock cuts and your done!  I used the new Stitched Stockings stamp set from the Holiday Mini Catalog.

The second card uses the same basic layout and stamps.  It just takes it up a notch by adding texture with the awesome Snow Burst Embossing Folder, punching out the stockings with new Stocking Builder Punch, adding punched cuffs and patch pieces and raising the stockings and sentiment up on Stampin' Dimensionals.  I also added some bling with our Basic Rhinestone and Pearl Jewels and the fabulous new Dazzling Details.  Hope you enjoy these simple cards!
