Sharing what
could quite possibly be the only individualised Christmas card I make this year
featuring the cute Little Reindeer stamp from Gerda Steiner Designs.
For my layout I’ve
followed the current sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch, I just made it into a square
instead of a rectangle. I used layers of
mats for interest and some messy foiling and embossing (see a great YouTube on
this technique by Dawn Woleslagle here) for my background.
Over at The Paper Players they have a colour palette to play with. I’ve used the Seaside Spray and Crumb Cake as
my cardstock layers. I tried to get a
brown that was similar to the Crumb Cake to colour up my cute little
reindeer. I did add a couple of other colours
in the lightbulbs and decorations hanging off his antlers and I couldn’t help
but do his nose red for the most famous reindeer of all! Instead of colouring the lightbulbs that were
part of the stamp I’ve stuck some Darice mini ones over the stamped ones for my
only embellies.
As I’ve featured
one of her gorgeous stamps on my card, I am also linking this up at Gerda Steiner Designs where they always play anything goes.
Speaking of
anything goes challenges, that’s always our theme at Bizzy Bec’s too. So why not link up a project and be in the draw
to win five digi stamps of your choice. You
can find our December challenge here.
