Merry Monday #95

It's time for another Merry Monday Christmas Challenge
This week's challenge is to use an animal on
your card. I was torn between a deer and
a bird. I thought about using both but in
the end I just went with the deer...


...and a few other elements.

supplies:
card stock: naturals ivory, always artichoke, early espresso
stamp sets: dasher, christmas messages, watercolor wonder, 
        gorgeous grunge, hearts a flutter
ink: early espresso, always artichoke, cherry cobbler
embellishments: linen thread, lace doilies, basic pearls, rhinestones
       this and that washi tape, brushed bronze button
       gold embossing powder
scallop tag topper punch
big shot: hearts a flutter frame lits

Happy Stampin'
