Tis The Season Deer in Woods Card

After making the star and leaping deer card, I decided to use the same sentiment as on that card but this time using my woodland dies. I picked a light blue grunge patterned background and dry embossed it with falling snow - LOVE this embossing folder, I put it in the supplies list below. I cut out a snow bank and edged it with Distress Stickles designer Clear Rock Candy.

I cut the birch trees frame, used Copic Sketch Markers (C1, C3) and again used the Clear Rock Candy stickles. I finished the trees by edging them with Distress Ink - Vintage Photo. I cut a cute red bird die and a few mini pine sprigs for a splash of color. I popped up the sentiment and then the entire piece is popped up on a white base. The birch tree die is framed with a finished size of 5 1/4 x 4 so there is a thin border of the base showing around the edges.

The deer die and birch tree dies were a Christmas gift from my sister in law. They are still my favorite dies. Alas, I can no longer find the deer die to buy online.
