I'm making calendars for friends this year and had to include this Lil Inker Rowdy Reindeer for a deer-hunting friend of ours. I stamped and die-cut Rowdy and colored him with Copics, then placed him on a Gina Marie Designs die-cut stitched circle. The base is kraft and the dsp is CTMH. I die-cut the "2018" with my Quickutz and added the printed calendar. To add to the fun, here's the back..
Oops! Looks like this one got away! I added some "dust" with a stick stamp by Judith and dotted with a brown marker pen.
I'm sharing this with the Cuttlebug Mania "Masculine" challenge as well as the Snippets Playground challenge weeks #307 and 308 , and..... with the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge which is "furry friends." Deer have fur, right?
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day!
