Cute Card Thursday ~ Christmas Animals

The Cute Card Thursday challenge this week is
Christmas Animals!
I couldn't think of a better Christmas animal than a reindeer! A great excuse for me to use my Whiff of Joy Charlotte in Sledge. I found this fabulous Basic Grey paper with reindeer on, so perfect for this card, the paper is from the Blitzen range, how appropriate!
Check out the amazing DT cards and check out the Team's blogs for more ideas and inspiration!

A little studio G stamp for inside, no wonder I have no time, I can't make a card now without decorating the inside! You can just see where I added an extra layer here for some dimension. Debby does this on almost all her cards and they always look fabulous!
Supplies: DP ~ Basic Grey 'Blitzen'
Cardstock ~ SU 'ruby red'
Stamps ~ whiff of joy 'Charlotte in sledge', Autumn Leaves 'For the record 2', Studio G
Embellishments ~ Prima festive pail, Dovecraft Brads, Rub-on Sentiment by Letraset

Gorgeous card, love the papers and those flowers. Doesn't 3d some of the elements bring the image alive, I can't stop doing it, even buy stamps that will work well with this technique.

Annie said...

another amazing card and beautifully coloured and decorated. I like how you are just doing a little something on the inside too, but as you say, takes longer and it uses more stash! hugs, annie x
