CottageCutz Dear Santa

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I have a card using the Homemade Christmas Gift Set!  This time I'm using the deer die cut for my main image...so cute!





Also from the set, I included one of the bows and "Dear Santa" die cuts using red cardstock and one of the setiment stamps.  On the top left corner, is a little piece of the Elegant Flurry Snowflake Die from the Winter Wonderland Release cut with white cardstock...what a stunning die this is!

Here's a little close up of the deer scene for you.


 


To make my card, I cut the deer die with white, green, grey, kraft, and red using little pieces/scraps.  The deer and wood post are made with kraft cardstock and shaded with Jumbo Java Ink.  I added the hooves with black cardstock and used a black marker for the eyes and spots.  The mailbox is grey cardstock shaded with black ink and a red flag.  The wreath is green and red cardstock dotted with a white gel pen.  The letter and snow are white cardstock shaded with Iced Blue Ink and a red stamp for the letter.

This cute little scene is popped on a blue Christmas designer paper piece that is stamped with the sentiment using black ink.  I glue this piece on a white mat embossed with a snowflake folder and popped it all on a red cardbase.  To finish the card, I added a bow and "Dear Santa" die cut both in red.

Here are the dies I used for this.
