Hello again! Moving right along toward Christmas with another deer card to send to a "deer" friend. This one is a small Penny Black set called Hello Deer. It's not new on the market, but new to me. Sometimes you just know when a stamp needs to come home with you.
I colored with Copics and framed with an older Spellbinders set. Embellished with a mix of dies. Added glitter. I brushed ink around the edges of the image panel and the card base.
Stamps: Penny Black Hello Deer Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Super Smooth Solar White 80#, brown Bazzill card base, other scraps Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, SU Creamy Caramel and Close to Cocoa Coloring: Copics Dies: Spellbinders Devine Eleoquence and Labels Twenty Eight, Impression Obsession Pine Pair, Tim Holtz Holiday Greens Mini, Poppystamps Prim and Proper Bow Other: Stickles Xmas Red, Golden Rod, Patina glitter glue
cute card. I like the way the deer is cut off. Just his head peaking out of the foliage. Nice frame to go with it. Have a great day. We're still in a mail strike with no foreseen end. sigh
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful. You picked the perfect frame die for this lovely image.

If I'd seen this stamp it would have come home with me too. And you colored it so beautifully! I love the frame and the die cut greenery and beautiful bow make this very special!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely, lovely card, Leslie!! You are the die-cut master, for sure. I love the holly antlers. (Or just the holly behind the antlers??) So fun and beautiful all at once.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun PB image. Not sure I have ever seen it! Your deer friend will love it! ☃️❄️Sue Kment
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love everything about this beautifully designed card, from the design right down to the colors. I 'might' have this stamp set, kind of think I do, for some reason at Christmas I am always drawn to the deer and the trees, my mantel is all lit up with both, I'm getting quite a collection so your card 'speaks' to me!! I love Penny Black stamps and have a couple new ones coming in..Merry Merry to me LOL!!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy reading your blog posts and seeing the wonderful cards that you make. This precious deer is on the top of that list. I love the delicate look that just seems to go with the deer image. Once again, you have inspired me! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness! This is just awesome my friend! Your coloring is amazing (as always) and love the touches of sparkle! Your 'deer' friend will love it as much as I do I'm sure!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Peace On Earth challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
