Laura's Stamping Place: Festive Farmhouse and Detailed Deer Christmas Card Tutorial

Today's post is of a cute little Christmas card I created using the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper and the Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies. One of my favorite reasons for participating in our group's challenges is that they give me project ideas to create and share with you on my blog and social media.

I was inspired to create this card after seeing a post on Mary Fish's blog. I changed it up, made it my own and above is the card I created.

The main products used: Festive Farmhouse DSP, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla Stock, Swirls & Curls Embossing Folder, Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies, Dashing Deer Stamp Set, and a piece of "wood" paper from Nature's Own DSP. There is a complete list of supplies used below.

Instructions to make this card: 

 Cut a piece of Crumb Cake card stock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" using the Stampin' Trimmer and fold in half to create the card base.
 Cut three pieces of Cherry Cobbler as follows: 5 1/4" x 4", 4" x 3 1/4" and 4 1/4" x 1 1/4".
 Cut one piece of Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper to 5" x 3 3/4".
 Cut one piece of Very Vanilla card stock to 3 3/4" x 3". 
 Run the 4 1/4" x 1 1/4" piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock through the Big Stock using the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
 Cut out the deer using a piece of Wood Texture Designer Series Paper (I used a piece of "wood" paper from the Nature's Own Designer Series Paper) and run it through the Big Shot using one of the deers from the Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies set. 
 Cut out a star from the Detailed Deer Thinlits Dies set and a piece of Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper.
 Stamp the "Happiest Chistmas Wishes" sentiment from the Dashing Deer Stamp Set onto the piece of Very Vanilla card stock.
 Adhere all of the pieces as shown and add a Rhinestone Basic Jewel in the center of the star.
