DIY Personalized Farmhouse Christmas Stocking

Hello! This Christmas instead of buying a premade Christmas stocking how about making a DIY personalized Farmhouse Christmas stocking using a Canvas stocking from Canvas Corp and an embroidered letter from Joy?

Did you know the white letters from Joy can be colored? Once you have your canvas stocking decorated the way you like, take your white Joy embroidered letter and spray it with some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist or your favorite spray color. It may take a little while for the letter to dry but once dry, iron the letter in place following the directions on the letter sheet package. Easy Peasy! You can also glue the letters in place with fabric glue if desired.

Below is a video tutorial showing how to made my Christmas stocking.

Below are some close-ups of my canvas Christmas stocking.

Halloween Scrapbook Layout with Canvas Corp

Hello, crafty friends! Today I am sharing a Halloween scrapbook layout I created with Canvas Corp Mix & Match Haunt It Pad and Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists.

Below is a short video showing my layout.

Make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel to get updates when I post a new video.

I love the orange, black and kraft color combo from the Haunt It Pad. All I had to do was add some green Tattered Angels mists to incorporate the greens from the photo of my daughter. It keeps the page simple but still has just enough color and embellishments to not be overwhelming.
