I made this for 2 challenges. We are sending cards to William, a young man in the navy that has a number of stress fractures. I am sending a smile on the deers face... If William is a hunter or a nature lover, I think he will like it.
I used the color challenge to make this card. Copics Crumb Cake E42, Mint Macaroon- closest match was G20, G21, Blushing Bride RV32 and R01. Neurtals used E44 Soft Suede, E49 Early Expresso, and R59 Merry Merlot. For Bling, I added enamel dots and a #D embossing Folder.

Now that deer is decked out for a Christmas party. Nicely done!

oh my - you did an awesome job. I absolutely love the green embossed background over the deer background. It really tops this card off. The poor deer looks like he is almost trying to camo himself with the holly on the antlers.. hiding from hunters is a good thing at this time of the year in our area...

I think anyone -- nature lover or not -- would love this card. What a beautiful image and using this week's color's was brilliant as they look wonderful. Great coloring too. The dp coordinates so perfectly and the added bits of green finish it off beautifully. Fabulous card.

William will absolutely love this. He use to go camping with his parents in the woods before he joined the navy. Oh the adventures he had before the navy. The whole family misses him so much and we are all grateful for my friends sending him all this happy mail. Thank you so much for taking the time to make a card to send to him it means the world to me.
