I designed two projects using the same card layout for a recent Sunday Stamping video. The first card incorporated the stamped gifts as a border across the bottom of the card, but I was worried that it was too busy, so I created a second card with a larger piece of designer paper for the background. Which of these do you prefer? Leave a comment below and let me know!
TIP: I used the masking technique to stamp the cat image over the stocking. Stamp the stocking first, then cover the top edge of the image with a sticky note and stamp the cat. Remove the sticky note to reveal the clean image (no line stamped through the cat's paws)! I colored the cat and stockings with Stampin' Blends.

Super cute! My favorite is the second one.
That - the second one
I love your this or that posts, to see different ideas for one layout. In this case, I prefer the first one—that’s a lot of stripes on the second one!
