Merry Christmas

 Hello there!

Today I have a card for The Paper Players and their color challenge Silver, Black and White. These are not the colors I would normally choose for a Christmas card but I still think it works quite well.



I have used the Christmastime stamp set from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous together with Stampendous Aged Silver embossing pouder for the sentiment, and it was stamped on an old designer paper from my stash. The reindeer is made by first using a stencil together with clear embossing powder and before it had solidified I sprinkled silver glitter over, then I cut it out by hand and attached with foam tape for dimension. I finished of by adding a few silver star sequins.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit
