This was a lot of fun to make. For my background, I mixed a little bit of Tim Holtz Broken China with my Dreamweaver's white embossing paste. I started at the top of my Memory Box Garden Birch Trees stencil and spreaded the paste downward. When I ran out of the colored paste, I used the unmixed white and started from the bottom and moved upwards. Where they met, I just mixed them on the stencil. You can't really see it but underneath the vellum, it is mostly white to mimic snow. After the paste was dried, I trimmed down my background using Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics A. I cut two sheets of vellum with a wavy top and wrapped that around my birch background. I used stickles to edge the top of the vellum and embossed in silver detail my sentiment. I then die-cut 8 Leaping Deers by Memory Box. Each deer is stacked 4 high; to make the doe, I cut off the antlers. Thanks so much for looking!
