Mosaic Reindeer

Hello, friends.  Today's card was inspired by the "12 Days of Christmas" challenges going on at Mark's Finest Papers.  I followed the tutorial on faux stained glass (mosaic) found here.   It's the first time I've tried this technique, and I'm very happy with the result. 

I was also inspired to create a matching envelope by A Blog Named Hero's Embell-Ope challenge.

Coordinating Envelope

To complete the faux stained glass challenge, I needed a homemade mosaic stamp, which my BF Brian kindly created for me - thank you, Brian.  Here's what it looks like:

Here are the other supplies used:

• Stamps:  Reindeer, snowflakes (Hero Art Christmas Reindeer), sentiment (Plaid), homemade mosaic (Brian)
• Ink:  Versafine Onyx Black
• Coloured pencils:  Prismacolor
• Cardstock:  Recollections
• Patterned paper:  Lawn Fawn
• Accents:  Snowflake, gems (Dollarama)
