Here is a quick card I made with the Moose You set. I wish the sayings on it where a bit bolder. It’s still a super cute set.
I started stamping the Deer in Close to Cocoa on Shimmery White cardstock. Then I added Old Olive for grass, and Soft Sky as sky with my aqua painter. I punched out four Mega Scallop squares with my Marvy Uchida punch and layered them to make one scalloped rectangle. I used Close to cocoa cardstock, but it was quite a bit lighter then my stamped image, so I sponged the cardstock to make it darker.
Since the sponged cardstock was quite dark and I didn’t want to sponged the edges of my card base, I gave up and used my trusted Chocolate chip cardstock for that. It’s an odd sized card. I had pulled out a 4 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ piece of Soft Sky cardstock and liked the way the deer looked on it. So I cut my Chocolate chip cardstock 4 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ and folded it in half for the base.
The bottom part is a 2 1/4″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Old Olive Prints Designer paper with ticket corner punch used on the bottom to corners. It’s a standard layout, I know. But I do like the look.
Last I added May Arts ribbon and paper pierced the top right corner.

This is definately a cute card. When I first saw this set I thought I would want it, but after spending more time looking at the catty I have decided against it, the sayings are just too small for my liking.
But I really like the color combinations you used for the background and the touch of paper piercing.
Thanks for sharing!
Too cute! You chose great colors for this little guy!!!
What a cute stamp, love the colors you used.
This lil guy just makes me giggle. It really is a cute set. Great card Beate.

I love this set and your designs make it even better. Can’t wait to get it and try it for myself!

That is a really cute set! Do you ever trim the sentiments off and mount them on the end of your block so you can stamp them wherever? Just wondered if others did this…. Gonna have to break down with this set…being Canadian and all.
Beate, this is so cute! I love how you “shaded” around the deer! And I’ve yet to use the paisley side of my prints paper…just couldn’t get it to look as good as this!!
This card is so cute and makes me think of “Bambi” – I think Beate could sell me on any set after she made a card or two with it.

Awe! This little guy is so cute! I really love what you’ve been making with all your new stuff!
SO adorable!!! I love this set, and I agree about the sentiments, but still just SO cute!! 🙂

PS, I never noticed that ‘shadow’ around your pictures before tonite; have you always had that? Hmmm!
