 Here's my stockings project.  I know this is a little different than you may have expected.  I was searching Harry Potter cards for ideas to use my new dies and this Dumbledore quote came up, perfect for my Dobby die.  I drew the quote with my Cricut and colored the first font with a metallic pen.  


I stamped the stocking and added the fiber.  I colored Dobby with alcohol markers.

I made two versions.  I added Hedwig to this card.


Ingredients:
Cricut used to print the sentiment
Character World Harry Potter Icon dies
Alcohol markers:  Copic, Hobby Colour, and Spectrum Noir
Creative Memories metallic  gold and green pens
Recollections stocking stamp
Colorbox Black pigment ink
Judikins black detail embossing powder
twine

Here's our line up in case you get lost along the way.











Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Be sure to join us next month for our

    Both cards are just magically delightful, but that Dobby card is PERFECT! Thanks for the morning laugh and I might just be scraplifting this design for later. ♥
