Today's card is a CAS Christmas card with no stamping! I first water colored my background with fall colors. I wanted to go with non-traditional Christmas colors. The deer was die cut using my Silhouette. I lost the wall plate part somewhere along the way, so I hand drew it using my Copic Multiliner pen that I won a while ago from a giveaway. I'm glad I was able to finally use it.
The sentiment is hand lettered. The patterned paper is actually chevron, but it shows as stripes here. I propped the deer head using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L foam squares. And who says a masculine can't have a bow? I guess as long as it's twine, it's okay. :)
