Sketch and masculine Christmas card

Crafting wise I'm in Christmas mode and mood and so I made another Christmas card, this time with my favorite item for this season - reindeers. I was inspired by a sketch and making it masculine.

I used non traditional colors. Deer stamp is a wood mounted one from Penny Black. I added ribbon with a gold bell and a snowflake metal picee I received from Mervi (thanks!).

This card is for:

    Gorgeous stamp Pia, the colours certainly are great for a guy but would also suit a female, I like the ribbon and bell very much.

    ooooh! GORGEOUS use of the PB stamps, Pia. Truly beautiful image - I think I NEED that stamp LOL Yes, I'm mostly sure of it. Your card design really does bring them to life in a most beautiful way, and that tiny bell is so sweet! The bokeh background represented by tiny gray dots looks like snow gently falling! Beautiful card, Pia! xx
