King of the Forest

Hello Nomad friends.  A couple of times this week I stumbled across blogs reminding me that it's less that 100 days to Christmas!!  So let's step it up a notch and try for a Christmas card a week.  There are a few blogs that keep us crafting for Christmas all year, and although I know we would love to hang on to summer and autumn, the year is turning and Yule will be here before you can say Dashing Through the Snow.  The Christmas Kickstart challenge is on a white on white theme.  I always find this a bit intimidating but they are allowing pops of colour and gold or silver so I decided to give this very awesome moose die a few silver highlights.  


I used a textured white satin card base and white hammered card for the snowy bank, cut with Memory Box stitched die.  The Moose and trees are Sizzix.  I used silver mirror card and die cut hooves, bell, harness and antlers.  I also added a silver star to his rump.  The hooves were a bit fiddly.  Will consider heat embossing next time.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Love, love, love it! I very nearly made my WoW card using this adorable moose, but wasn't sure how he'd look. Turns out he looks brilliant! Jo x
