CAS Christmas March 2019 - Deer

Hello friends.  I'm playing along with this months challenge over at CAS Christmas and they are looking for DEER on your card.


I have a rather whimsical card to share with you today using some scraps from my box...


I started by using a Elizabeth Craft Designs die set Reindeer (gifted to me by my dear friend Birgit) and using the tree die to cut out 2 trees using a piece of cardstock that I had used Cattail Copper Brown Lindy's Magicals on.  I used a 2 3/4 x 4 1/4 piece of white cardstock to build my scene on, adding a small snowbank to the bottom so I would have a place to stamp my sentiment (PTI's Rustic Wreath).  I added the 2 trees and then added the reindeer die cut from some Hawaiian Shores (PTI) cs.  The reindeer and the small white die cut snowflakes are also from the Elizabeth Craft Designs set.


The shimmer from the copper in the trees and the unusual color of the deer both make me smile at this card...nothing like a little magic for Christmas, right?!!

The DT has some beautiful inspiration to get you started, so check it all out right HERE and then play along to get a head start on your Christmas cards.  You have until the 24th to play along with this challenge.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

  9. I love this, Marcia ... every little element, from the texture-y looking Christmas trees that have 'grown' over the edges of the panel, to those delicate tumbling snowflakes, from that oh so elegant aqua reindeer to the (French!) sentiment-stamped snowbank ... it's gorgeous! Hugs, Anita :)
