A Reindeer Fun Winter Wonderland for the Pals Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Winter Wonderland. We hope to inspire you with our creations today! The lineup is at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

A winter wonderland can mean so many things, and for me, I think of the days when I lived in Ohio. I grew up there, and there was plenty of winter, sometimes a wonderland and others not so much.

Nonetheless, those Ohio winters always remind me of watching the classic Christmas movies. One in particular is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. It’s amazing that it has been around since 1964, and after all these years, it’s still just as popular.

With Rudolph in mind, I created this fun card with the Reindeer Fun stamp bundle. Giving the deer a red nose was as simple as adding a small piece of Real Red cardstock within the deer sandwich.

Here is how I made this fun Winter Wonderland card

• Begin with a 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” piece of Garden Green cardstock, score and fold at 4 1/4” to form your card base.
• Sandwich the front of your card base in the Forever Plaid embossing folder and run through your cut & emboss machine.
• Adhere a 3 1/2 x 4 3/4” piece of Reindeer Days DSP, diagonally, to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then adhere a 3 1/2” x 4” piece of Basic White cardstock to it.

• Using the Deckled Circles dies, crop a piece of Basic White and Real Red cardstock with the 7th smallest die, and a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock with the 8th smallest die.
• Cut a piece of Real Red cardstock to measure 1/4” x 1/2” and crop the following with the Reindeer Fun dies; a circle with greenery within the real red circle, and a set of berries in Real Red cardstock, holly leaves in Garden Green cardstock, a deer shadow with antlers in Early Espresso cardstock, a detailed deer with solid ears in Crumb Cake cardstock, and a detailed deer with hollow ears in Pecan Pie cardstock.

• Adhere the deer pieces, the holly and berries, and the three circles together as shown. (Hint-to give the deer a red nose, apply the small piece of Real Red cardstock to the back of the Crumb Cake piece first.)

• Apply a Stampin’ Dimensional to the top of the back of the deer and some Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the bottom section. Adhere it to the center of the circles.
• Adhere the circles to the card and attach the holly to the top left of it with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

• Stamp your sentiment on a 1/2” x 3 1/4” (cut at a diagonal on the left side) piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock with Garden Green ink.
• Adhere the sentiment to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Attach one berry cluster and two single Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Berries embellishments as shown.
