I recycled the deer images from a commercially printed holiday card I receive last year. I embellished this with stamping, including Peaceful Wishes and Clear Stamps from Studio G.
It was a crying shame to cover up most of the gorgeous pink dp which was a gift from the lovely Anne Ryan, but I felt it was a nice complement to the colors in the main panel image.
Hope you like it! Thanks for the challenge and thanks for looking!

Darn, I was hoping that the deer were stamped. I would have bought those up right away! A very lovely card and a great idea to recycle store bought Christmas cards.

Wow! Way to recycle! I was wondering how you did that. A good idea to file away...You did a beautiful job with Peaceful Wishes. I just love that set, and to use it to spice up the corners is gorgeous. tfs
