Dear Deer from Merry Tags Framelits

Hi stampers,

This is the third and final card that we made in Tuesday's Stamp-A-Stack class.  What caught my eye on this card is the beautiful blue, Stampin' Up's Pacific Point. 

This is a pairing of the stamp set, Merriest Wishes and the Merry Tags Framelits.  Once again, I always recommend getting the bundles, so many more options and they add so interest and dimension to the cards.

This is a simple one layer card.  Starting with the Whisper White cardstock, stamp the background (underneath the tag) with the square "flurry" stamp from the Merriest Wishes stamp set and then also stamp the sentiment at the bottom, both in Pacific Point.

Punch out a circle in Pacific Blue with the 2" circle punch.

With a small square of Whisper White die cut the deer tag with the Big Shot. Using the Die Cut brush, run the brush over the back of the Framelit to release the negative pieces from the back of the Framelit. 

TIP: I keep my Big Shot die brush and sponge in a 99 cent plastic pencil box.  It fits perfectly and keeps all the little pieces from flying around.

Attach the die cut deer tag to the 2" circle in Pacific Point then affix that on top of the stamped square with a couple of Dimensionals.  Make a little bow out of the Thick Whisper White Baker's twine attach it to the tag with a glue dot and Voila!  You are finished!

If you need to make a bunch of Christmas cards this is a great one to do.

Don't you just love the clean lines on this?

Dimensions:

Whisper White
8.5  x 5.5 scored at 4.25
