Candy stripe Christmas?

I made the little red and white striped strip of paper using my Prima Watersoluble Oil Pastels. I just lay down a bunch of pigment and blended it with water. I put some Faber Castell Gloss over top of it, which further blended it out (I had no idea how to use that gloss, I was just experimenting).

I also stamped the stocking (very old stamp) and colored it in with the same Prima crayons, but I just scribbled a tiny bit on my craft mat and used it like watercolor with a tiny brush. It is easy to work with and layer the colors (I used plain Neenah card.).

I also stamped the stockings using Brilliance Platinum in to create patterned paper on the card base.

The sentiment stamper is Elle Studio stamped in Versafine.
