Hi there! I hope you all had a good Christmas, different as it was for so many of us! I’m going to try to blog as many Christmas cards that I can in the next couple days, seeing as I finally have time, and most of them have made it to their recipients. When I saw this handsome guy in the latest release at Power Poppy, I knew I had to have him!! I colored up Maximo Moose, from the Forest Fellas collection, with my Copics, then cut him out to hang off the square focal piece.
I wanted to do a rustic, masculine card, as this was for my son. What better prints to use than woodgrain and buffalo plaid?!?! I layered the pieces, wrapping the printed papers with a piece of twine, before attaching the image. I spattered some white paint, to give a feeling of snow, then cut the sentiment (from the same set as the image) with a fishtail banner die. To finish this card, I attached some wooden snowflakes…perfect compliments to the rustic look!!

What wonderful coloring of the moose (with an attitude). I love how you incorporated a red”Christmasy” plaid, plus a woodgrain background. I loved how you designed this card.
Fabulous card and the moose looks so realistic. Thanks so very much for joining us this time at the Crafty Creations Challenge, Elizabeth (DT)
This card just falls together nicely, the mix of patterns and colors. Very well done. Good luck
Oh my, what a beautiful card! Gorgeous papers and design. I love that image. Thank you for joining us at ABC Christmas Challenge. xx Wilma
