Creations by AR November Release Stuffed Stocking and Pop Up Frosty




Welcome to the November Creations by AR blog hop!



This month we are showing you TWO  new templates:


I had some new pretty papers from Inspiration Emporium that I am using this week. (You can see the links to both paper pads below)! I seriously think I am in heaven when I get my hands on pretty paper and press that cut button on my Silhouette...silly girl I know!  Look below at some close up pictures of the new templates...

Stocking without a lid on..Oh I do love this Tim Holtz Merriment paper!!!!
hmmm....a surprise compartment in the toe
A good place to hide a special treat or maybe a little cash!
This stocking can hold a full  bag of yummy Russel Stover chocolates perfectly!!! Just thought you should know that....

Here is the gift card all closed up...I used some pretty Carta Bella cardstock and distressed all the pieces with brown ink.
Here you can see the little Frosty head tucks right into the scarf and holds the card closed
Here it is opened up. I did not glue the sides down...this cardstock is so textured the template stayed closed nicely on its on. Directions say to glue the sides down and then slip in the card you see  below. You can see the pretty snowflake freebie on the front.
Here you can see how the gift card fits in behind Frosty and his sleigh. I think it would be really fun to make this bigger and instead of a gift card, add a family picture...wouldn't that be cool to get in the mail!???

  ♫ Frosty the snowman had a very shiny nose  ....

You will also get a couple freebies should you purchase these files before November 30th
Stuffed Stocking Freebie-Holiday Wreath
Pop Up Frosty-Snowflake Set
I glued two wreaths together going opposite directions, added a circle behind it and added a little bling!

  1. Love, love, love the papers you used on your stockings Sue! How fun and festive - we had the same idea in layering the pretty wreath. And again - the papers you used on Frosty's hat and wreath AND presents make it all so colorful!

  4. Your work just gets more stunning....yup, great paper helps too, but you "work it". Funny how you said you get excited to cut pretty paper on the Silhouette while I get nervous about screwing up my pretty paper on the machine....cause I HAVE done it...haha

It's always fun seeing what you are up to. hugs, de
