Good Morning.
Just when you think you have it all under control, you find out that you need a few more cards.
I don't know where the time went!?
Time for a quick and easy one.
I began with a piece of heavy white cardstock, placed it into my Misti and stamped the plaid with some Versafine ink. Next, I die-cut the deer head, pressed it onto my Versamark ink pad and silver embossed it. I decided I wanted to add a simple frame and this hemstitch edging worked great for that.. I glued the deer head over the plaid bkg., then added the stamped sentiment with pop dots. I added that to a heavy white card base.
Pretty simply right?
Thanks so much for taking a look.

Oh how I love black and white plaid on a Christmas card! Thanks for sharing it with us at Cut It Up.
very festive, with that silver ! Nice. Merry Christmas ! Annick
This card is a simple stunner! Everything about it works perfectly together - the monochromatic color palette, the use of a single background texture and the centered image/sentiment. The hemstitched die set has been on my wish list for months now and I think I will now have to move it over to my shopping cart! Very nice work! Thanks for sharing it with us at the Cut It Up! Challenge Blog.

Love it. I just ordered a deer die so this is great inspiration for me.
This is striking! I especially love the plaid; amazed that you created it with a stamp! (Gotta love MISTI!)
Thanks for sharing your Anything Goes Christmas project with us at Cut it Up. Merry Christmas!
