Merry Christmas w/the Deer Family

Hello Blogger Friends Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. It's the weekend before Thanksgiving and I have plenty to do to get ready for the big day.

 

I made about 6 or 7 Thanksgiving cards but I didn't mail them yet. Have to get to the post office before 4:00 so they will be delivered on Monday. They are all local except one of them.

 

Then I have to get busy to finish up the Christmas cards. I have about 22 so far but need at least 20 or 25 more. I subscribe to the Stampin'-Up Paper Pumpkin kit so that will help me get the rest of them finished. In November I order 2 kits just for this purpose.  

 

So let's move onto my card for today. This one I created for my weekly DT post on the CottageCutz blog. My card this week is featuring the Merry Christmas w/Deer Family die. The die includes the birch trees plus the deer images.

 

I thought I would create a simple outdoor scene. For the background, I used the Stampin'-Up "softly falling" embossing folder and balmy blue cardstock. I cut a snowbank and used glitter to cover the top.

 

The Merry Christmas sentiment is part of this die set. I decided to use it on the snowbank instead of attaching it to the tree. To bring a little color to the trees, I added 3 small red birds. A scattering of a few sequins completed this card. I may make a couple more of these because it was so easy to create.

Well, that's it for me for this post. So until next time God Bless.
