Pootler’s Blog Hop, Dashing Deer card

Yay, it’s time for another Pootler’s Blog Hop! We hop each time there is a new catalogue launch. So – this hop is for the new Autumn/Winter catalogue and each project on the hop uses items from it. We’d love it if you could take time to hop around every blog. Yes, I know there’s a lot of them, but I promise that the projects will be awesome!

My card uses the wonderful Dashing Deer bundle:

I’ve kind of CASED the catalogue but changed a few things too. All the gold elements are from the bundle – I heat embossed the gold sentiment and floral wreath design and die cut the deer. I also added some gold embossing around the edge of the mat in the background.

The circle that the deer is sitting on I embossed using the Swirls and Curls embossing folder – love it, and it’s not just for Christmas!

And last but certainly not least, the checkered background is the Buffalo Check background stamp. I used Soft Sea Foam ink, not immediately Christmassy, but it’s a colour I love and had to use.

Here’s one last close up look:

This is a beautiful bundle, and one I plan to use a lot this year so look out for more cards and projects using it from me.

Here are the other Pootlers who are hopping:
