Today's F4A challenge was to colour block with patterned paper. I think maybe I used too much on my card, not sure how well it works. But it's another Christmas card towards my October quota, and that's good as I expect most of my October card-making will be for the HYCCT challenges.
A2 base. I used a large-patterned difficult-to-use sheet from Basic Grey's Eskimo Kisses, along with the small deer-patterned one, sponged the edges and punched the corners. Sentiment is Penny Black, cut with Labels 18. I then stamped the mistletoe from Peaceful Wishes with ColorBox Pigment Moss Green, and sponged the edges with Aqua and Merlot. I added a Spellbinders deer with gold glitter on the antlers, Liquid Pearls on the nose (and the mistletoe berries) and a tiny pearl eye. I drew eyelashes on as well, don't think you can see them.

Sabrina,
Another pretty Christmas card. Your DP really is lovely and the sweet deer on the card is too cute (haven't seen this one from Spellbinders before). The sentiment is lovely and the frame perfect.

When I noticed the bound books in the back, I was quickly reminded of the Book of Kells we saw at Trinity College.
I love your reindeer with his sweet little nose.
