Oh, how I LOVE this card!!!! I adore the post card stamp...I think it adds a bit of vintage to any image you pair it with, which I'm a huge fan of. When I first saw this deer image in the holiday catalog, I knew it had to be mine. I love it as a Christmas image!
For this card I used colors from The Dynamic Duos and the theme from The Friday Mashup.
I started by stamping the Post Card onto Vanilla CS and cutting the image out. I added the evergreen sprigs and pinecones from the retired set Watercolor Winter. I really, really loved this set and wish it hadn't been retired. There are so many cool images in it.
Next, I stamped the deer from Remembering Christmas in Versamark ink, sprinkled it with heat and stick powder, heated it with my heat gun and then added the glitter. Finally, I trimmed out the image.
I added the "Merry" from Snowflake Soiree and "Christmas" from a Close To My Heart set called Say it in Style.
Lastly, I layered a little piece of Early Espresso punched border under the postcard, added some linen thread and a naturals button before putting the whole thing together on an embossed piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and Always Artichoke card base.
Here's a complete list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Post Card, Remembering Christmas, Watercolor Winter, Snowflake Soiree
Paper: Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla
Ink: Versamark, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso
Accessories: Heat and Stick powder, gold glitter, Lattice Border punch, Pretty Print EF, Linen Thread, Naturals button

I love this card. I was sad there wasn't a deer in the new SU Christmas catalog. But I found one at Hobby Lobby to use in its place. Thanks for sharing.
