This is a 4 1/2"x6 1/4" card. I used some striped cardstock for the card base. I wrapped it with some green glitter ribbon. The double matted label is from Elegant Edges. I used the oblong feature and my Gyspy to make it taller without going wider. It measures 5 1/4"x3 1/2" (the green layer) and 5"x3 1/4" (the white layer). The stocking is cut at 5." I flocked and embossed the white layer with the D'vine Swirls folder. The green layers are embossed with the Swiss Dots folder. I used glossy accents on the nail. The gingerbread man is cut at 2 3/4" from "Just Because" Cards. I used my white gel pen to draw on his icing stripes and some white pearls for his eyes, smile and buttons. I only adhered down the bottom part of the stocking so that I could create a pocket at the top part for the gingerbread man. I pop-dotted the top part of the stocking and put my little gingerbread guy inside. For the inside I cut more of the striped cardstock 1/8" smaller than the card base. I then cut some green cardstock 1" smaller than the striped cardstock and the white cardstock is 1/4" smaller than the green. I used a Scrappy Moms Stamp for the senitment and stamped it in jumbo java ink, by Tsukineko.
