November 2017 Back in Plaid Paper Pumpkin Alternatives

These fun-size stockings are perfect for stuffing with treats and giving away to very special friends. You might even say that projects like these are the thing Christmas memories are made of.  SU! kept their promise to help you keep it simple this year, with just enough stamping and tying and folding to allow you to add your own special touch to these sweet gift-holders.  In less than an hour, you’ll have a stack of the cutest favors anywhere, handmade with love.  However, I decided I wanted cards instead.  I cut my stockings into mini stockings and ended up with 28 cards and I still have a couple stockings left!  How does it get any better than that!

These are the extras I used for my alternatives.  All other items were supplied in the November 2017 Back in Plaid Paper Pumpkin kit.  Most of my inspiration came from Pinterest, of course!
