How is your week going? I am trying to sort out lots of things. Then on Thursday I have my regular trip to Winchester. I do love this and I get to see the Christmas market which I think is one of the best around.
Last week when I was there I treated myself to some dies in the pre Black Friday sales. I was very keen to play with them. The first thing I made was the card in my previous post. Then I decided to make something a bit simpler.
I have lots of off cuts of white card left over from making wedding invitations this year. They are just the right size to fit the Branched birch die. I inked through the die to make patches darker then I removed the die and lightly inked the trees. I had some navy card to cut the snow for the background.
I found some craft card in my stash of bits and cut the deer from it. I added a bit of ink to them.
The snowflake border was cut in white.
I used the same navy card as the snowy background to cut the sentiment.
I am very pleased with my new dies. They even encouraged me to get my inks out which I haven't done for a long time.
Happy Crafting

Great purchase, Jackie! I was good and refrained from buying, and don't even feel withdrawals! LOL so I guess that's a good thing. You say this is a simple card, but gosh! I thought just the opposite with all the inky layers or GORGEOUS COLORS! Love this amazing creation - truly beautiful! hugs, de
