Slimline Sweet Stockings Very Merry - Freshly Made Sketches #509

 Slimline cards are my favourite as they provide me with plenty of real estate to design on.

The sketch challenge #509 by Jen suits a Slimline card well, so that is the type of card I made.  I use the Sweet Stockings bundle to make this card. 

 I took some liberties with the sketch turning it sideways(landscape) rather than portrait.

The Thick White card  base measures 3 1/2 by 8 1/4",  It is layered with a piece of Sweet Stockings DSP die cut with a non SU stitched rectangle slimline die.  The 3 square apertures are die cut with stitched " 1 7/8 dies that are part of this die set;

The reverse pattern of the square die cut DSP pieces were adhered back into the die cut aperture using dimensionals.

On the left square die cut was added a cat in a stocking;

 On the right square die cut was added a dog with a Santa hat - also in a stocking

And in the middle square is  a cat in a box that was fussy cut from the DSP. A banner with a  Christmas sentiment  is adhered to the bottom edge of the box.
