More Christmas!

I am having so much fun playing with the new stocking die.  I used our Frostwood Lodge DSP and CS (embossed) for the stockings and made several at once.  You can embellish as much or little as you wish.  I'll be showing you more stockings soon that have more of a vintage look, with lots of details and embellishments.
Today's are a little more simple, to show you how you can quickly create several stockings quickly that look great, especially with our new cherry cobbler ribbon!
Here's a close-up of a medallion (lollie) with felt embellishments.  It's on the cuff of the stocking.
Tip:
To embellish and create a loop (for hanging) all in one step, loop your ribbon in 1/2, poke it up through the hole in the cuff to the front and tie a knot.  It embellishes the front and yet has enough of a loop to hang it, too.  Quick and easy!


Here's an ornament I made with 2 medallions attached back to back.

Close-up of how they're attached.
Tip:
Loop your ribbon and hide the ends in the center between the 2 medallions.

I embellished with our cute little felt pieces.  The red felt is such a shade of red that it actually works with our Real Red AND our Cherry Cobbler.
