This is my card for inspiration challenge #681, inspired by the deer pillow and stocking shown in the samples, since I'm always in need of masculine cards.
Sometimes my thinking is very convoluted. I wanted to stamp the deer on cream card stock, so I found 2 scraps that together were big enough for the image. Being too lazy to look further for a single piece that would fit, I instead decided to stamp the deer on the 2 pieces taped together and make a mosaic. So I colored the image and then proceeded to cut it all apart in little pieces and then put it all back together. It would have been much easier to just find a bigger piece of card stock, but anyway, I do love the end result. I hope you do as well.

Oh, wow, Melody, this is just gorgeous. I think this was the best way to do it instead of on one piece. It's an awesome masculine card. I know the pretty pillow you chose for your inspiration. Glad you played and hope you have a very Merry Christmas. Right into my faves.

I love how you think! What a way to use up scrap papers. The deer image is wonderful as is your idea and sketch. Hugz
