A Toast to You

ATTY

Oh, gosh, I love this reindeer!  Her name is Cheer Deer and she is part of CC Designs new set, Reindeer Games available through All That Scraps.  (Also available individually here.)

This little gal is celebrating so I felt she should wear her fancy party skirt.  I pleated a small scrap of the dp, adhering the ribbon over the top.  (I couldn’t think of a “tactful” way to make a tiny top, so let’s just pretend that for reindeer parties, going topless is appropriate, ok?) Both ribbons are dyed using a Copic marker.  I love doing that! So easy!

I colored her using a water brush and SU reinkers.  I masked her then stamped the stars in the background, adding the red dots with a Stardust gelly roll pen.  They’re sparkly, but it doesn’t show in this pic.  I added the little “cherry” sticker and drew in the stem with a marker.  The focal image is raised on dimensionals.

Thanks for looking!!  Have a great day! 🙂  Tomorrow’s post…another Take Two with Trudee, Lindsey and Julia!
