Darling Deer Christmascard

For this card I got the inspiration from Kath Stewart. Check it out here on her blog.

For the background I used Distress Ink Faded Jeans, Speckled Egg and the new Distress Color Rustic Wilderness. I think it's such a beautiful green. I put some stars on it by using a stencil and some texture paste and covering this with some glitter.

The cathedral window was painted with Distress Paint Brushed Pewter.

Santa’s Wish

For this card I made a tag and glued it down to a card.

The background is colored with  Distress Ink and Oxide Speckled Egg. I used a stencil to create the snowflakes. I used Speckled Egg Oxide so it would be visible but not stand out to much. I sprayed it with water to make it blend into the background.

Santa and the greenery were made with white cardstock colored with different colors.

I colored some white cardstock in different colors to make Santa, the snowman and the reindeer. 

For the background I used Distress Ink Speckled Egg and Pine Needles. For the pine branches on the square card I used the stamp Yuletide Gatherings and for the rectangle card one of the new stencils: Gatherings.

The circles and squares were cut with the dies Stacked Tiles Circles and Stacked Tiles Squares.

Christmas mansion

I started with cutting out the Village Dwelling and theVillage Brownstone. I cut both of them twice.
For the middle part of the house, I took the Village Dwellings and glued them on top of each other and glued the upper door shut. Then I cut out the windows on that spot.

I embossed some white cardstock with the 3d embossing folder Lumber and cut the paper into strips to make planks. The planks I glued to the walls of the different parts of the house.

I glued the two Brownstones to the sides of the middle piece and put on the roofs. I had to shorten one side of the roofs for the Brownstone to make it fit.

I used different cutting dies from the Village series to decorate the house.

The snow on the roof is made with grit-paste and covered with Distress glitterClear Rock Candy. On the ground there’s texture paste with Distress glitter and around the house I used Mica flakes.

The tree is colored with Rustic Wilderness. Such a beautiful green.  

The deer are covered with Distress glitter dust.

And I added some lights.
