Happy Little Stampers Christmas - Reindeer

Christmas is over and it's time to start those cards for next year.  Happy Little Stampers Christmas is here to inspire and encourage you.  As usual it's an 'Anything Goes' challenge with an optional twist and here it is.
I always challenge myself to do the twist so this is what I made.
I saw Dawn from WPlus9 make faux shiplap backgrounds and I had to try it. Since you can watch the video, I won't bore you with the details. The deer from EbyE is inlaid and surrounded by branches from Catherine Pooler and a sentiment from Concord and 9th.

We hope you'll get inspired by what you see on our blog and make a card for the gallery.

You really rocked that background Bobby and I love how you framed the deer with the berry sprigs.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you a happy and healthy 2019.

Beautiful card, I love the impression of movement on this card. I do not know how you managed to get this effect. Great inspiration.
Happy New Year, Bobby

Love that background, and the leaping stag looks fabulous on it. The berry branches in the corners finish the card off beautifully. I love it!
