I'm moving right along after Halloween right into Christmas with my card today. This is a very old SU! image called "Dasher" that I heat-embossed with Versamark and some gold embossing powder. I colored the die-cut stitched circle with a Copic marker and added a few dabs of red stickles to the antlers, adding some diamond stickles to the ground beneath the deer. I die cut the green circle with a Spellbinders scalloped die and embossed the background with a Sizzix Snow Globe embossing folder, adding a strip of red glitter paper. The sentiment was done with a retired SU! Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp, embossed with gold, and placed on a combination of punched layers.
I'll share this with the following challenges:
The Double D Challenge - Oh DEER!
the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Emboss it!
The Peace on Earth Christmas challenge #50 - A/G Christmas
Thanks for stopping by to visit today. Here's wishing you a great day whatever you do!

This pretty stylized deer is so elegant and surely deserved a new outfit, well done using it! Love the shining and sparkling you added with the embossing powder and stickles. And the embossed panel with the holly has a fabulous crisp impression. Love the scallop circle and the traditional colours choice too!
