Christmas in the Country, stag stamped and embossed on 8 x 8 card

This is an 8 x 8 " kraft card base, with Christmas in the Country matted on. i used the 12 x 12 pack and the squares is a pattern already on one of the papers ! I stamped my stag with Chocolate Artiste pigment ink, embossed in clear . i cut him out with the postage stamps die set. matted him onto some pale gold glitter paper. and also put strips down the sides. i put strips of brown check on the top and bottom too. The lovely white velvet ribbon is fixed to the back of the stag and decorated with one of the little ' At Christmas' free stamps on the front of the Creativity Magazine this month. (July 2013)
