Warmest Wishes.

Time again over at the Christmas Card Club
to show the cards we have made for
The next theme  chosen by Rita
'Christmas Reindeer.'
Now whilst I do have some nice Reindeer stamps
I was determined to use those little die cut snippets
from a day or so ago that I said looked
a bit like antlers!
So I collected up a few more odds and ends
An old Christmas card front
The left over card from cutting out the butterfly tag
2 ovals cut using my Fiskars shape template
Sentiment saved from an old card
Small snippets of white card stock
A few pearls
and oh yes the Antlers!
and got cracking.
I did use a few extras not shown here
as I improvised as I went along.
Acetate, blue card stock, glitter and Wink of Stella.
Entering into the following challenges:
Crimbo Crackers # Anything goes.
Sister Act #79 Anything goes.
Christmas Stampin all Yr Long #33 Use your imagination.
Pixie's Crafty Workshop #147 Use up your snippets ( I most certainly did!)
Crafty Hazelnuts Extra # Christmas cards only.

  16. Well I am totally lost here as people are commenting on two cards but I only see one as the first picture to me is showing what you were using and not a card at all.
    Your second photo shows the finished card and how lovely it is too, love the reindeer.
