Today I'm sharing some cards made with a deer scene die I bought recently. I made two variations. Do you have a preference? For the one on the left, I used white glitter cardstock for the die-cut, and upon seeing it alongside the white cardstock on the right, I realize it's not as white as I thought, although it is sparkly!
Card 1 - Warm Wishes
I used my NBUS deer scene die, so I am joining Darnell's NBUS Challenge #9.
- Die: Deer scene (unmarked)
- Clear stamp: SugarPea Designs Sweet Treats Christmas
- Embossing folder: Die'sire Embossalicious Let it Snow
- Patterned paper: Doodlebug
- Other: Vellum, white glitter cardstock, and clear gems from my stash

ReplyDeleteWow! I love that die, KT, and was going to ask you who made it and saw that you don't know LOL It's nice that it is already made into a scene for you, isn't it? LOVE BOTH CARDS, but if I must absolutely pick a fave, I sorta prefer the first one for some reason. Maybe I just prefer the background paper? But maybe it is the frame. Who knows, because I am slightly whacky! Wishing you a lovely week-end Miss KT, and looking forward to seeing more of your blog cards! I'm sorry that I cannot comment as often as I'd like any more - I really DO care, but I'm just not able. I hope you know that is not a reflection of the affection I hold for you. huggers, de

Lovely die, and a very elegant card. I likes them both, in real life I would prolly opt for sparkly, but that because I'm secretly a magpie :)

Great cards. You asked our preference which is hard. I like the second as it stands out more without the vellum. Both have good points :D Thanks for joining in at Jo's for Funday Friday.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! Tough to choose a favorite, but I think I like the one with the sparkly white card stock better as I like the variation in the colors behind the scene. Either way, they turned out fabulously! Thanks for playing with the House That Stamps Built, CHNCC2, and Jo's Scrap Shack.
ReplyDeleteboth cards are so lovely, but think I would prefer the second one, as it has just one colour in the background, sending hugs and love and cuddles or a skinrub when they want it to your furbabys, Marion
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are very beautiful and very elegant! I love the sparkly one!

They are lovely! Thanks for joining the challenge at Paper Creator! Hope you have a wonderful day!

ReplyDeleteGreat cards Thanks so much for joining us over at Crafty Creations Challenges. Kristina DT
ReplyDeleteLoving this color! Bothcardsare wonderful. Thanks so much for joining us at Connie Can Crop's monthly challenge, Anything Goes. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi, caught your card at Rudy Day, and easy to zip over to see what you've been up to. I love this die, and think each of the cards is just gorgeous. I like the subtle embossing in #1's sky very much, and how great that you were able to do a 2-fer and make each one a bit different. Hope all is well. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteThis is a neat die. Both versions are great. White cardstock is not created equal, it's weird how there can be a whole spectrum of different whites, but there is.
ReplyDeleteVery nice diecuts, superb, I love the version with the vellum, so cute. TFS and for joining us again at Connie Can Crop challenge "Anything Goes". Best luck
ReplyDeleteI love them both equally, Kitty! I really love the pp you used behind the die in both cards! Thanks for playing again! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteTwo great CAS cards. Thank you for joining in the Anything Goes challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and apologies for the late comment.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous pair of cards with that fab die - I love then both! Thank you for joining us at Sparkles Monthly Challenges this time and I hope that you'll join us again soon,
