I was fortunate to win a mystery prize bundle of Christmas goodies in the Snippets Playground and this cute Retro Reindeer was in my package. The set not only included the stamp but a coordinating die too - perfect for me as I'm not a fan of fussy cutting! The sentiment was also from another stamp set I won, the main image will appear on my blog soon!

To make this card I used:
5" x 5" white matt card blank
Crafter's Companion 'Retro Christmas - Reindeer' stamp and coordinating die
Woodware 'Bubble Bauble and Bow' sentiment stamp
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' die.
Versafine Vintage Sepia ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Copics
Snippet of white matt card
I used a stitched circle die to emboss the front of the card blank and set it aside. I used brown ink to stamp the reindeer on a snippet of white card. This was embossed with clear embossing powder before being cut with the coordinating die. I put the card blank into my MISTI and placed the reindeer onto it so I could see where to stamp the sentiment. I removed the reindeer and stamped with sentiment with brown ink. The sentiment didn't stamp too well on the embossed circle, so I filled the gap with a brown Copic before embossing the sentiment with clear embossing powder. To finish I coloured the reindeer with Copics and attached it to the front of the card with foam pads.
