MIM #91 Faux Pockets

Dawn McVey challenged us to use faux pockets on our cards.
There's a complete tutorial on Nichole Heady's blog at PapertreyInk.com.
My card features a few of the new stamp and die sets.
The 'pocket' is a mat stack 4 with the top chopped.
The Santa face from Santa Stationary is heat embossed in white on Pure Poppy cardstock.
When the tag is removed, theres a message from the same set, stamped in Scarlet Jewel and Spring Rain, separated by a heart jewel.
Details are die cuts from Peaceful Pinecones and Snowflake Medley.
Much too much fun, and, making headway with the Christmas Card!

    Lovely, as always! The mat stack 4 as a pocket is just perfect for the tag with santa. Love how he looks on red cardstock! Very pretty ´flower´ on his hat too!

    A. I WISH the stockings I stuffed with the kids' Christmas presents looked this good every year. They don't.
    B. The depth in this card is outstanding. It's jumping out at me,
    C. Love the pinecones and how each is unique.
    D. I need more to put in the kids' stockings.

    Love that you made a pocket out of the mat stack die! What an interesting shape for a pocket. The embossed white on the red cardstock gives a nice effect too.
