Santa's Little Extra Helper no 6

Please keep those "Song Without Words" cards coming, we are all enjoying seeing them and puzzling over which songs they depict. It's fun to have that extra twist to think about when making, and viewing the cards.
This week's Little Extra theme is:
"Hang Up Your Stockings"
Obviously we mean the stockings we put out in the hope that Father Christmas will pay us a visit and fill them with little treats (not your fishnets and suspenders!).
Maybe you're in a part of the world that has a different custom, for instance in some countries the children put their shoes on the windowsill rather than hang up stockings. Whatever you do, we'd love to hear about your traditions as well as seeing your cards, so please tell us a little about how you celebrate Christmas in your country and in your home.
Here's a website with more info on Christmas Traditions around the world
Here are some Design Team cards to help you on your way

Gorgeous cards ladies.
Im sorry but I won't be playing along with this one. Right now I have every card I need made, written & enveloped! Smug or what!!
Im turning my hand more to gifts as many have to be posted & with being ill so long, I am rather far behind schedule. I don't sell Xmas cards so missing one won't hurt.
