When I saw this sketch over at Sunday Stamps I flipped it and I roughly knew what items I wanted to use:
I mounted an embossed woodgrain panel onto the kraft card base. Made a square with a Spellbinders die and some musical notes DP. The Hero Arts die cut wreath got punched greeneries decorated with little gold stars and red and gold pearls made with pearl pens. The deer is made with a die from Kort&Godt and I heat embossed with a mix of brown and bronze EP. When everything was put together I added white frantage and the sticker post mark.
This card is for:
Sunday Stamps - #140 Sketch
Christmas Card Challenges - #50 Anything Goes Christmas
Allsorts - #391 Anything Christmas
The neutral tones are perfect with the wood embossing folder and the twig wreath the spellbinders die and the musical paper a great foil for the stunning deer's head,
ReplyDeleteThis is a terrific card Pia. The wood embossing is perfect for an overall rustic feel - Great job. x
