Here is the card I made, it is only small, about 4 x 4,5 inches, so not a lot of room for much white space, but the design is quite simple so I hope that it fits the challenge.I stamped the main image onto the card with Memento tuxedo black and onto some spare card with Memento rich cocoa. I coloured the trees with a green coloursoft pencil and the white distress marker.This turned out to be a bit tricky as the pen tip kept picking up the green and I had to keep cleaning it on a piece of kitchen paper. I was going to use a glue pen to add glitter to the snowy bits but my pen seems to have run out or dried up so I used white Liquid Pearls instead and some ultra fine crystal glitter. I stamped the star above the trees with Brilliance galaxy gold ink and embossed it with WOW clear gold highlights EP. I then cut out the little deer from the brown stamped image and used silicon glue to to stick him over the black one to give just a little dimension, and then stamped the greeting at the top. All the stamps used are from Chocolate Baroque, the main image is from a set called Christmas Creatures, the star and greeting came from other sets. I am also going to enter this at Crafty Ann's- Christmas in October.

Thank you for taking a look and for your comments, I really appreciate them all. Jean.
Well done! I have this little image stamped and coloured and ready to do something with too! It is rather sweet so I must use it. I doubt whether my card will end up as CAS as yours though! Kate x
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely Jean! The image is gorgeous, and I love how the tree has turned out with the liquid pearls and crystal glitter. I'm always late with my Xmas cards, despite good intentions - I've thought about them.....and that's about it :-). I think the majority will be clean and simple though.

p.s. I googled Saffmat - this looks really interesting stuff, I'm wondering if it would transfer onto wood, do you think?
the dimension of your deer is wonderful & he's absolutely super in the brown. I reckon it's perfect for CAS - you're better than me, I've not made one Christmas card yet!
