Hello.
Today I'm sharing some Reindeer with you.
I watched THIS cool video from Jennifer McGuire and Lila, about making cards with small die cuts, and just had to give it a go. I don't have any silhouette dies, so I struggled to find something that might work, eventually coming across this reindeer. It's a bit big, but I think I got away with it.
- die cut lots of reindeer from snippets of design paper and white card
- layer the reindeer with the design paper on top (I used 2 layers of card and 1 of dp)
- stick the reindeer onto a card panel, leaving space for your sentiment (because my reindeer were so big, I ended up adding the sentiment with foam tape)
- trim off the reindeer pieces around the edge of the panel.
- attach panel to card base, add sentiment
I recommend watching Jennifer's video. This was just a simple version of her technique, she also shows how you can die-cut in plain colours and stamp a design on top. Plus other variations.
Challenges
- hero arts - reindeer set
- mini snowflake from wplus9, stamped in distress ink salvaged patina
- various snippets of christmas dp
