Merry Christmas 'Deer'

 It's finally here - December that is and that means

New Challenges over at  STAMPlorations 

Check out our Stencil Challenge Here

where my Team Mates created projects for your pleasure.

I love using the reindeer head from 

CUTplorations Two Reindeer Dies

as you can build up the texture in so many ways.

I started my card with the background for it

with scrunched tissued paper glued to card stock

then added stenciling with ARTploratons Shutters

with Tim's Frayed Burlap and die cut.

On to my reindeer - I inked him with the frayed burlap,

vintage gold wax, crackle glaze and clear rock candy.

Needing some colour I stenciled red card stock with

ARTplorations Christmas Tree 1

using Transparent Gloss Texture Paste

and while wet sprayed with Gold Perfect Pearls Mix.

Inked my STAMPlorations Homespun Christmas sentiment

and attached behind the deer.

Added a few coloured stars and popped to the

Christmas Tree background and on to the same red card stock.

These are the products used
