I've chosen a true star from the current Annual catalogue - the gorgeous Dashing Deer, for my blog hop feature!
Start with a base of Early Espresso cardstock cut to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score a 4 1/4 and fold
Add a layer of Come To Gather DSP - 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
Cut a 4 1/2 piece of Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon, place across the layer and wrap ends onto the back, adhering with Glue Dots. Tie a bow & adhere with Glue Dots.
The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Christmas, and it's stamped in Early Espresso & cut using the Classic Label Punch.
On Whisper White cardstock, stamp the deer using Early Espresso Ink, then die cut using one of the Detailed Deer dies.
Die cut the Come To Gather DSP using the 2nd largest Stitched Nested Die, & adhere the deer using Multi-Liquid Glue. Adhere this layer onto the card using Dimensionals.
I love sparkle, so I added some Rhinestone Basic Jewels, and 'splattered' Clear Wink of Stella to the card. It doesn't show in the pic, but it's there! 😊
I love this sentiment from the Dashing Deer stamp set. It's stamped in Early Espresso, as is the deer, although the deer was stamped off once.
For more Dashing Deer inspiration, here's my Tuesday @10am video!
Bonus Project!
I was inspired by another demonstrator who used our Craft Pillow Boxes as a treat holder!
To make it:
Lay the box flat & cut at the 3 inch mark.
Wrap a piece of Whisper White Flax Ribbon around the box, then cut and adhere using Snail or Glue Dots rather than a liquid glue.
Emboss a small piece of Copper Foil paper using the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder,
and cut using the Tree Punch. The gorgeous Brightly Gleaming DSP with the copper stars is simply lovely!
From the Christmas Gleaming set, I stamped the sentiment onto Whisper White cardstock using Delicata Celestial Copper ink and 'fussy cut' it. The trees and sentiment are adhered using Dimensionals and Glue Dots.
Wouldn't this be a wonderful little place holder at Christmas dinner!
