The Shock and Awe continues as I continue to make Christmas cards early. I think the frigid cold* weather helps. The Merry Monday ladies have offered up a stocking challenge, which had me digging through my lingerie drawer in search of something slinky and black, before I realized they meant Christmas stockings, and good thing too because who wants to fuss with that other stuff?!
For Christmas stockings I had to then dig through a whole different drawer. I pulled out one of my new LOTV stamps that had some wee little stockings hung by the chimney with care and used that. I had a very hard time coloring this image as I had to stop and sneeze every few seconds. It was so bad one might almost be lead to believe that I'm allergic to Christmas. Certainly I'm not allergic to coloring?!
* frigid cold in Southern Arizona is a wee bit different than frigid cold in say, Minnesota
The Fine Print: Stamp by Lili of the Valley, designer papers by DCWV, faux brads by Stampin' Up. Hmmm... in hindsight I'm thinking that fire could use some glitter.

It'd be very sad if you're allergic to colouring, because this is so cute!! Heading for frigid cold here too... probably somewhere between the Southern Arizona and Minnesota versions.

LOL, your sneezes don't show on this photo, Judy! Love this sweet design and you've colored it beautifully despite the sneezes! Thanks for sharing it with us at Merry Monday! See you at the hot tub!
This is such an adorable image and you've colored it so beautifully! Thanks so much for joining us at Merry Monday.
Oh my gosh, this is just the cutest image and paired with that wonderful plaid paper, how could you go wrong?! Adorbs!
Stay warm as eastern PA faces another snow/sleet/ice storm overnight after getting dumped with 9" of snow yesterday :(
This is the perfect adorable image for the challenge! It's a super sweet card!
Cute, cute card! Despite the sneezing, your coloring turned out perfect! LOTV just has the cutest images, don't they?! :0)
This card is so stinking cute! Love LOTV images. Glad your sneezing didn't effect your coloring. Very cute card!!
OMG! This scene is too stinkin' adorable! Only Christmas could bring together a dog, a cat, and a mouse, without, you know, trying to kill each other. (wink) Your coloring is amazing! TFS!
I don't even know if I love your card or your post more - I had to laugh more than once, you goof :) Also, good thing you included the frigid Arizona disclaimer! lol!
I'm most impressed that you were sneezing a bunch but don't seem to have gotten any on that adorable image! The stripes on the kitty make me happy :)
This image is completely adorable Judy. You have coloured it so beautifully. Love the plaid DSP too. Thank you so much for joining us at Merry Monday.
OMG . . . those little furry friends by the fire . . . so cute. Absolutely adorable.
