Flourishes has issued a Christmas Sketch challenge, in April So of course I HAD to play And here is my take on their sketch
I used Reindeer from Flourishes "Sleigh Ride" & "Flourishes Christmas" stamp sets. The Reindeer are colored in with Tombows, cut out and popped up on popdots. I used paper from Fancy Pants Happy Together "Forever" and used both sides of the sheet (Creamy & a Blue pattern), with some gold accent paper. I cut out the center with a Spellbinders "Circle" die, and the flourished "frame" is the Spellbinders "Decorative Window" die. I used a Spellbinders "Labels Twenty One" die behind the decorative flourish die and a Spellbinders "Classic Lace" die for the decorative bottom edge. I finished it off with a scrap piece of ribbon.

Very pretty Amanda. Your embossing is wonderful. I like the scene and how you created the gold flourished circle. Nicely done, so glad you could play in our Christmas Spirit Challenge.

This is more than beautiful. I added this to my favourites because I'm going to CASE it for my Christmas cards this year. Of course, you will get the credit.
