Deer Ornament

Hello, everybody!  I'm back again today to share another holiday card!  As mentioned, I'm getting a headstart on next year's cards!


I love this gorgeous ornament die-cut, but I do not know the name or manufacturer as I received it from a friend (thank you!).  The background was made with various Distress Oxides on watercolour paper using the ink-smooshing technique.  I added a bow made with White as Snow crinkle ribbon from DL.ART. The embossing folder is Die'sire Embossalicious Let it Snow, and for the sentiment, I die-cut the word from a scrap of my Distress Oxide background with Recollections Christmas Words.  Lastly I embellished the card with lots of snowflake sequins and gems.

I was inspired by the Cut it Up Holiday Tic-Tac-Toe board.  I went with Ornament, Embossing (Dry), and Gems.

  6. I also have that ornament die and love it too. Beautiful background, it's nice to have them on hand, it's just as easy to do a bunch as it is for one. Great use of the embossing folder and embellishemnts.
