Reflections of Christmas - Day Eight

Up to day eight now.  Since I made all the frames to begin with, I've actually been able to keep up with making the ATCs and keep the project on track to get completed before Christmas.

My inspiration, as usual was a tag in Linda Coughlin's  "12 Tags of Christmas", since I am playing along with the Funkie Junkie's 12 Tags of Christmas challenge.

Inspirations from Linda's tag:  Tim Holtz Stencil background, sentiment, rickrack and stocking (since I was using the stocking die cut I didn't want another one on the ATC, so I thought - who fills the stockings?  Santa of course.

Frame

• Trim:  Bo Bunny Woodland Winter
• Back Panel:  Tim Holtz “Holiday Knit” Stencil
• Decorative Cutout:  Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers  Mini Stocking
• Reflection:  Printed in MS Word, Segoe Print Font
• Pediment:  Tim Holtz Pediment die
• Metal Sentiment:  Tim Holtz Christmas Word Band

Here's a closeup of the Artist Trading Card.  It hangs from a hook under the pediment,

ATC:

• Background:  Tim Holtz Sizzix “Dot Matrix” Texture Fade (not embossed, painted resist technique)
