The challenge for the September Christmas Card challenge is to use "falling snow". Continuing with my deer theme, I chose the deer from Amuse Studio's Peace on Earth set. I brayered the sky with Smoky Slate, Bermuda Bay and Midnight Muse, after masking the ground. I was getting some lines I didn't like when I used the brayer, so I went over the sky with a sponge dauber after braying, which seemed to fix the problems. I let it dry, then stamped the birch trees and deer in Basic Black. I colored in the trunks of the trees with SU's new chalk marker, added a bit of shadowing to the ground with Smoky Slate and a dauber. The final touch was the embossed falling snow. I made 10 of these. This is many more steps than usual for my cards, but I like the overall effect.
