It's a super Christmas card Lorraine and love the design, am thinking you must have cut out those antlers to place them, great patience in doing so.

Hi Lorraine,
what a great card, and such a very wonderful design also.
I love how you have got that cute image poking out of your die cut.
Super embossing, and of course such a luxurious touch with that mirri card.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Hi Lorraine, this is a beautiful card - your colouring looks wonderful - really well done - I avoided that image because I was worried by the fur! I love your card design too - and I am particularly taken with that gorgeous embossing folder..

Love, love this sweet image, and my, how you played it up so wonderfully with the gleam of gold & white. Love the fancy cutout circle aperture and the coppery colors of the image that shows through. The antlers outside the cutout looks so dimensional and of course I love the sentiment look. Nice embossing pattern to compliment your focal image as well. TFS & Hugs

Karen said...

Lorraine, this is a golden Christmas dream! :o) The image is spectacular and your positioning of it brings it to life even more. The embossed background is darling. I don't think I've ever seen a sweeter embossing folder! :o) Gorgeous work! I am returning from another necessary break to care for health and family concerns. Thank you for sticking with me during this tough year!

Hugs and blessings,
Karen
