Deer Ornament

Hello, everybody!  Today I have three holiday cards to share!  This is the first one, and I'll be back shortly with the other two.  All three cards are clean and simple, and feature deer die-cuts.  The circle background behind the deer is a leftover scrap of an alcohol ink panel I made a while back, so it felt great to use it!


Dies:  Cottage Cutz Deer and Birch Ornament, Yinise Life Bow Frame (bow only)
Embossing folder: Darice Snowflake Background
Clear stamp:  A Creative Journey with Melissa You're Snow Wonderful
Ink:  Ranger Alcohol Inks (various greens, blues), Simon Says Stamp High Dive (for sentiment and bow)

I would like to join the following challenges:
2 Sisters on the Blog Make a CAS Card (Clean and Simple) 1/3
CAS Christmas March Deer 1/3
Christmas Kickstart Moves on Hooves 3/3 C8
Mod Squad One or More Metal Dies and No Digital 1/3 
Pixie's Snippet Playground 348 (leftover snippet of alcohol ink background) 1E
STAMPlorations March Anything CAS Goes Optional Colour Twist Coral Pink 1/3



Thank you for looking at my card! Wishing you a joyful day!

I just ADORE your alcohol ink backgrounds, especially those in blue tones as this one! I find them perfect for Christmas cards! Very well done using that scrap! This CAS card is a delight with the cute deer in the bauble!!! The beautiful texture on the back makes the bauble pop out!!
Big hugs!
