Good evening!
Today's post comes as a post-Birthday post, a card for Hubbs! I didn't get to post it, since yesterday was his Birthday and I've been running in a BUNCH of directions trying to prepare for Christmas, his Birthday and just get caught up with life in general. I received this set just days ago, an enabling from sweet Michele. I thought about it, and I had no deer stamps, dies or anything so I decided this one was just too cute to pass up. Here's my card ~
Again, I used the glorious colors from Color Hughes #54 - Navy & Cream. I used a couple of NBUS items, so this will also go to NBUS #45. I used the cream base, embossed the navy panel, and then cut it a little larger than half before attaching it. The deer were stamped and die cut, attached hanging off the center panel, and then hot foiled the sentiment with matte gold and cut it down into a banner before mounting it.
As you can see, the matte gold foil looks awesome, I felt it worked better with the cream color choice. Also, I really hope that the brown antlers are considered "neutral" since related to the cream tones.
Supplies:
PTI - Deer To Me stamps/dies, Stitched Florals coverplate (all NBUS)
SB - Slimline Confetti (Bday sentiment)
That's it for me today! Hubbs and his bowl of peanuts are beckoning me down to the Family Room!
I do need a few more Christmas cards and tags, so maybe you'll see some more of my "new stash" soon.
Hugs,
TK
