I die-cut a Christmas stocking from red and white felt as well as white card stock. Glued the felt onto the card stock pieces for stability. The red stocking part was dry embossed with a waffle design that, to me, looks like it's been knitted. Added two small die-cut holly and a red rhinstone to finish the stock. I then glued the stocking over top of the "j" from the die-cut. Mountd my image onto a white card. Easy, peasy. This would look so cute with using different matching papers, so I might make more of these. :)

Such a creative idea to use the stocking for the letter 'J'.....Love the idea of the stocking in the felt and then to dry emboss it....so creative and such fun x
Talk about imaginative! This idea is brilliant, Loll! It looks fun to do too! The texture in the stocking is fantastic. I'd have never thought to emboss felt.
You are so clever, Loll! I love how you used the stocking for the letter 'J' and how the red portion of the stocking looks knitted! Such a sweet CAS Christmas card! Barb xx

So clever using the Stocking for the "J", I have to remember to do this in the future.
Gorgeous card :)
Love the use of the stocking for the "J" - and love it being cut out of felt and then dry embossed. Great card!
Sweet card, Loll. Love substituting letters in sentiments and the stocking makes the perfect “j”. xx
Making the stocking the letter, J, is a clever idea, Loll! Love the felt stocking. I didn't know that the dry embossing worked on felt. It does look like it's knitted. Thanks for sharing!

Love this fuzzy stocking, Loll, and how it makes the J in this jolly card!
How cute and creative to use that felt stocking as the J in Jolly, Loll.
What an adorable and creative way to use the stocking as a J. Loll, it was so nice meeting you and stamping together this past weekend. Have a great weekend.
A brilliant idea to replace the letter J with a festive sock. I love this card, Loll.
