First time using this awesome deer die; creating a summer nature scene for the Free for all challenge, using the CAS design seed colors (SO love those colours).
I taped the background tree stencil to the water colour paper, sponged distress inks all over to create the scene, then stamped trees in.
After removing the stencil, I stamped the greeting; & used a marker to create some grass in front a few trees, then layered my deer on. (I lightly sponged the deer with an eye shadow sponge & distress inks).
My tool for the central theme is: stencils...I'm growing to love them more and more.

What a beautiful scene and so clever to use the CAS colours! I really love seeing these deer in the summer time. Gives them a break from all the snow they usually have to trod through! :-) Great card!
