Twas the Night Before...

Can you tell that sometimes Dream Team's "Fearless Leader", Pam Hornschu, has a hard time deciding on monthly challenges?  The team has been taking turns all month with the Smeared and Smudged 31 Days of Halloween, and we have done a Christmas collaboration with Stampendous and Core'dinations, so, the confusion should be understandable. Therefore...Happy HallowThanksMas! 

Here's my creation for today:

Here's what I used to create my card:

Dreamweaver Stencils© DG692 Nested Stockings Die Set

Dreamweaver Stencils© LG611 Stone Wall

Dreamweaver Stencils© Regular (White) Embossing Paste

Neenah® Classic Crest™ Natural White Cover Stock

Bo Bunny® Mistletoe Collection 6x6 Paper Pad

Red Cardstock

Copic® Markers: W1, W4, E43, E99

Gold Gel Pen

Red Mini Brad

May Arts Ribbon® Red/White Bakers Twine

Zip Dry™ Paper Glue by Beacon Adhesives®

Here's what to do to create my card:

Paste emboss stone wall, set aside to dry

Die cut medium stocking with two different pattered papers

Create card base for an A-2 card with a tent fold

Trim striped patterned paper for background

Once paste is dry, color with markers then trim edges of pasted piece

Set pasted piece on green patterned paper and write lines from poem around edges

Trim green patterned paper as shown

Adhere stocking pieces together and attach twine to stocking

Punch hole for brad in pasted piece, put brad through, attach stocking to brad

Adhere all layers as shown

As a note, when I pasted the stencil, I used my palette knife and tapped paste onto the layer I initially spread.  I wanted it to have a rough surface since a stone wall would not be smooth. I love how it turned out!
