Stampin' Up! Peaceful Deer - Card from the Catalog

 

Hi!  Where do you find inspiration for your paper crafting projects?  One of my favorite places is Stampin' Up!'s Catalogs.  Each and every catalog is full of beautiful papercrafts that you can recreate!  This card, is an example of that.  It is based on the tag found on p. 9 of the Sale-a-bration brochure.  I simplified it just a bit as I changed the idea from a tag to a card.  The changes were mostly because I am not a huge fan of distressing, and I don't own the Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim used on the tag.  

MEASUREMENTS

Cherry Cobbler 8-1/2" x 5-1/2", score at 4-1/4"

Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper ~ 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" (*2), 

Plus, 2 deer fussy cut from the DSP

Basic White Cardstock ~ 4" x 5-1/4" (inside)

• Begin by using a Blending Brush to add a touch of Crumb Cake ink to all of the pieces of DSP, including the deer. 
• Stamp the large tree 3 times on the front of the DSP, as shown, with Garden Green ink.
• Then, stamp the sentiment with Tuxedo Black Memento ink.
• Adhere the DSP layers to the front of the card, as shown. 
• Attach the deer on the left with your favorite adhesive, and the one on the right with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. 

Stamp 'Merry Christmas' with the Garden Green ink on the piece of Basic White CS.  Then, use the Blending Brush to add a touch of the Crumb Cake ink to the lower right corner.  Stamp the sweet deer over the hint of color in the corner.  Adhere this to the inside of your card.
