I took my inspiration from this fabric in the Snowy Magic collection. I concentrated on the deer in the field of white.
I started with my white card base and ran it thru the "waves" EF hoping that turned on it's side it might give the illusion of bare trees in the bg. I sponged some twisted citron onto navy cardstock for a night glow and spattered with white acrylic paint for a starry / snowy sky. I decided to frame my scene in a star shape - cut the largest that would fit on my card then arranged the die cut doe and pine trees in that space. (Attached to base with mounting tape) To finish, I stamped the sentiment, embossed and die cut and sponged a fine edge to frame.

Love the simplicity of your technique to accomplish such a lovely night sky! Wonderful dimension and texture achieved with your embossed background, and love that stitched star to frame your white silhouetted deer and trees against that RICH sky!

This is so Beautiful! I love everything about your card, especially the fact that you kept it mostly white! Lovely snowy evening...so peaceful just like your sentiment states.

The EF really takes the look of trees in this card! Love the blue and white and the little deer is a sweet die. The star for the frame was a perfect choice!
