Deer Friend

For you my Deer
Hi everyone ,sorry for bad photo( it's under the weather) cause it has been raining the whole of yesterday and today so the picture is a bit darker~think of it, in 1-2 shade lighter  : ) . I normally take my picture using natural sunlight.
 Love this stamp too ! When I saw someone made a card with this deer image( a year or maybe 2 ago) , I said to myself I must buy it! That's how I found TGF(the greeting farm) stamps and fell in love with their stamps ! They are so cute! Love the different characters they have and good quality stamps too!(Sorry, I think this stamp is no longer available !So if yo have it , Lucky you!) Cause I no longer see it in their stamp collection. So for me if I see something I really- really like I would buy it . ( I miss out on some cute stamps .... -_-  am regretting now....)
I decided to make a scallop circle card (just brought this die, am loving it!) The 4 pieces of DP is a new from BG ~hopscotch ,....love the colours in the pad .Have painted the deer with distress inks and glossy accents the eye , nose and some parts of his body.Placed 2 buttons over a eline flower which I have glimmer mist(don't remember the colours I used.) and added a bow lace.He seems to be looking up ,so I placed a butterfly on the upper right corner.Love it ! It 's now sitting next to Flutter Anya!




Challenges I would love to enter are :


TGF M.Mon - Claudine
Simon says stamps - Animal Antic
LOTV - # 82 Anything but a square

You can see from the close-up picture a bit of the gloss on the eye and neck.Have also distress some pink on the SB die cut shape.Love how it looks with the buttons in the center with the bow.(Had to dig into my jar of pink buttons to look for a coral pink button to match this card)
