Christmas Doodling

Happy Saturday!

This week I hosted the TLC over at Splitcoast Stampers and the challenge was to create some 

Doodled Plaid.

I wanted to make another card using this technique so here it is. 

Very simple CAS design, I think the red is very festive.

I began by masking off my card front with some Post-It Tape. I then placed the Simple Grid stencil onto my card front and taped it down too so it wouldn't move.  I applied some DOX inks in reds over the stencil then removed it to reveal the grid pattern.

I set that aside to dry a bit and die-cut the deer head and the leaves with my Cuttlebug.

Back to the grid.  Using a fineline black marker, I doodled in the lines, then removed my Post it tape and added the border giving the whole piece a very whimsical look.  

I stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts then pop-dotted the deer head over the grid.

I think this would make a great card for a guy.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
