Shimmery Trio of Dashing Deer in Winter Woods

The Shimmery White embossing looks much prettier in person and I like it with the Gray Granite card

 I've decided to throw in some extra inspiration - a Christmas present if you will!

Three looks using the same basic ingredients and method.

Basically the same card, just stepped up a bit by creating the layer on the Thick Whisper White base card

Onto Gray Granite cardstock, the image from Winter Woods was stamped with Versamark, sprinkled with Shimmer White embossing powder and heat embossed.

I then applied versamark to the lower section direct from the pad and Shimmer White heat embossed.

Just for a bit more depth and interest, I stamped some more trees with Versamark and left them as a watermark.

Then I added the deer (they were leftovers from previous projects!).  The Dashing Deer was stamped with Golden Glitz metallic ink (I find using the Stamparatus helps as I can stamp twice to reinforce the shimmery colour) and then cut out with the coordinating Detailed Deer die.

Stepped up just a little more:  One more layer, a different tree image and shadows created with directional use of the Versamark pad

I used the birch image for this one.  To give the impressing of tree shadows, I swiped my Versamark pad diagonally and sparingly and then added extra Versamark to the foreground using horizontal strokes with the pad. Then heat embossed again with Shimmer White embossing powder.

I'll be relaxing on Christmas Day and I'm pretty sure you will be too!  So my next post will be on Friday 27th December.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!  HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!
