Deer Friends Card!

Today Ellen has combined several fun products to create an adorable winter scene! This scene features the image of the deer peeking around the snowman from our new Festive Fawns Stamp Set. She colored this sweet image and cut it out using the coordinating Festive Fawns Die Set. To make a fun scene she paired it with the little row of houses from our Snow Globe Scenes Stamp Set in the background. She added to the winter theme with layers of snowy hills cut out using our Land Borders Die Set and Sea Borders Die Set. The sparkly sky was created using sparkly embossing paste with our Starfield Stencil. Then she framed the whole thing using  he postage edge from our Framework Die Set.

Ellen is a genius at creating scenes! Do you like to create scenes but don't know where to start? See her tips below on how she created this one!

  1. Color your images as you like. I used images from the Festive Fawns Stamp Set and Snow Globe Scenes Stamp Set. Here I used Zig Markers, these are watercolor markers. They help you to have more control over your watercoloring. The images were cut out using their coordinating die sets.
  2. Then you can make your background. First I watercolored my background with Holbein Watercolors. Secondly I also added Glitz Glitter Gell in white by using the Starfield Stencil.
  3. When everything is dry you can put your card together. I used the biggest frame from the Framework Die Set and added snow hills by cutting borders with the Land Borders Die Set and Sea Borders Die Set.
There are so many fun ways to combine our products for creative scenes! We love hearing the process on how Ellen created this!
