Christmas Stag

 They say we could have snow on Monday - perfect Christmas card making weather! 


The beautiful wood-and-garland background paper was a gift from a friend. My main task was choosing something to pair with it that wouldn't detract from any of the lovely detail. 
I chose an NBUS stamp and stencil set that came with Creative Stamping magazine late last year. Once stamped and stencilled, I die cut the image and cold-foiled the edge. A few dots of Candi to balance the weight of the top border and the card was complete. 

I am sharing this with
