Reindeer Ornaments

Hello All,

For today I am sharing my card with Freshly Made Sketches and The Color Throwdown. I have noticed I work frequently with these two challenges. Anyway, here is my card for today, enjoy!

This card was inspired by the die cut deer. Making a card friendly shadowbox wasn't as hard as I thought. What challenged me is what goes around the card to accentuate the deer focal point. I thought the neutral whites were perfect. 

Above: The attention is obviously the deer and its ornaments. So I wanted to keep the rest of the card free from clutter. I chose a geometric white on white patterned paper. It adds interest but not enough to take away from the star of the show. Left/Below: The strings of ornaments were layered up between the layers of the deer. Dimension for sure! It looks like a mini shadowbox.  Right/Bottom: Due to the numerous layers of the deer I had to build up the sentiment on its left side. To do that, I die cut two craft foam pieces and sandwiched them under the sparkly silver die. The result, the sentiment was perfectly level. Phew!
  

Challenges Entered:




Thank you so much for stopping by and do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. I hope you all have a fantastic day and lots of good crafting vibes headed your way.
