Framed Reindeer - Red Hot Stampers #55

I'm sore today from doing all that gardening yesterday - but glad that I got my geraniums inside.  There's still a lot of work to do outside, but the urgency to get it done is gone.  Today the forecast is for rain so I may not get too much done outside today.  That makes is a good day to replenish my supplies for the next craft sale in a week and a half, - and to make some cards.
This card is based on the sketch challenge with Red Hot Stampers here

Technique: 

The card base is Gumball Green layered with Very Vanilla.  The next designer paper layer is from Be of Good Cheer.

To make the panel behind the image, I took a 1 3/8" square punch and punched 4 different design pieces of Candlelight Christmas designer paper and attached them to Whisper White base.  Then I wrapped a Gumball Green stitched satin ribbon around the bottom 1/2 of this panel and added a bow.

Image:

I first embossed the oval designer frames folder on a piece of Whisper White card stock - then stamped the oval image from Joyous Celebration in Early Espresso.  Lastly the deer was stamped in the middle of that, and a dot of Cherry cobbler dazzling details was placed on its nost.

This white oval was matted with an Early Espresso oval die cut using the Ovals #2 die.  I applied tombo glue around the white frame and added Champagne glass glitter.

The image was attached to the card using dimensionals.

"Falling" for You - Red Hot Stampers Sketch Challenge #53

What a change in the weather!  The awful oppressive heat is gone and in its place is wonderful, breathable cool air.  Well, after all it is September, a wonderful month, with the leaves starting to change color already.
For my card with the sketch challenge with the Red Hot Stampers here   I decided to make a cluster of autumn leaves for my embellishment.

 

Technique: 
The card base is chocolate chip, followed by a layer of Very Vanilla card stock which was embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder and then lightly sponged with Chocolate chip ink.
The wavy line was die cut using the Tasteful trim die.

After die cutting the leaves with Very Vanilla cardstock and the Autumn Accents die, they were stamped with various autumn colors  They were then sponged with at least 3 colors, and then crumpled them up in a ball. Tthe resultant creases were lightly sponged with Soft Suede ink. In order to blend the colors the now colored leaves were lightly spritzed with water.  When dry, they were spritzed with gold smooch.

They were attached to each other and to the card using dimensionals.
