For today's card I pulled out one of my very favorite Lil' Inker Designs stamp sets - and actually one that I hadn't used yet this year, Oh Deer Christmas Stamp.
I colored it in with my brand new Zig Clean Color Brush Markers that I received as a gift from someone special! :) Once that dried - I added some Glossy Accents to the antleres, nose, and leaves.
Lil' Inker's Silly Stitched Die Set was the perfect size to die cut my panel, and then wrap some jute twine around to tie in a bow with a simple button.
Finished off with some woodgrain pattern paper, and a bit of lace trim laid underneath before attaching it all together.

ReplyDeleteIf this isn't a male card, nothing is. Someone mentioned lace and I had to look at the card again. There is lace! Wow! My mom's boss, who died about 5 years ago or so, was a deer hunter. I tried deer meat from him but didn't like it. He would have liked this card. I love the wood background. It looks so realistic. Are you sure it's not carved from a tree in your backyard? Great male card!
