Reindeer Fun Card and Miss Lola with Santa
Todays card features the adorable Reindeer Fun Bundle from Stampin' Up!
It also coordinates perfectly with the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper! It's on sale too!
Directions:
Cut a card base of Thick Basic White Card Stock to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and score in half.
Cut a piece of Real Red C/S to 3 3/4" x 5 1/4" and attach to the card base.
Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 3 1/2" x 5", Using a Blending Brush and some Pool Party Ink, add a light layer of ink to the center of this layer. Then emboss with the Snowflake Sky Embossing Folder. Wrap some Pool Party Pompom ribbon around this layer and tie into a knot on the left hand side. Attach this layer using Dimensionals to the Real Red C/S layer.
Stamp the sentiment in Early Espresso Ink onto a 3 3/4" x 1" piece of Basic White C/S. Flag cut the end and attach using Dimensionals.
Die cut or punch out a Pool Party C/S circle and a smaller Basic White C/S circle. Use any circle dies or punches that you have. Attach the pool Party C/S circle using Dimensionals to the card front, then attach the Basic White C/S circle over top.
Die cut the deer pieces:
The antlers are Early Espresso C/S, the inside ears are Basic White C/S and top Layer is Pean Pie C/S.
Attach all the pieces together using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.
Die cut a wreath from Shaded Spruce C/S. Glue behind the deer. Die cut a Real Red C/S bow and attach to the wreath. Attach the deer/wreath to the circle using Dimensionals.
Add some Rhinestones to the wreath that have been colored using a red Sharpie Marker or a Real Red Stampin' Blends.
For the inside of the card and the envelope I stamped a Shaded Spruce Ink tree.
I hope you find some time for yourself during the holidays. It can be stressful at times, so it's important to take some breaks for yourself. I love to go into my craft room and play or even just tidy and organize. I could spend hours organizing my room!!!
Miss Lola has been soooooo good this year that she decided she wanted to visit Santa so she could brag, I mean tell him how good she has been. So we drove her out to see him. Santa already knew she has been a good girl so it was no surprise to him, but he still sat patiently while she filled him in on all her goodness! He also wished her an early happy 14th birthday, she was so excited that he remembered! Lola even got to see other doggies and kittys at Santas place, apparently she wasn't the only good girl. She was so excited and happy that she was doing helicopter tail wags! Of course she got a treat from Santa, another highlight of her visit. Way to go Lola! We are very proud of you and love you very much!
Merry Christmas everyone!!
Love and Hugs,
Arlene and Lola Bean!
