Dashing Deer - LICI-B-15


This is card #15 of 24 cards I made by loving and chopping the entire package of my Everyday Enchantment DSP!  I made 4 of each card so a total of 96 cards!  It is such a good way of using the DSP that has sat on my shelf for years!  Do watch Kylie Bertucci’s video on how to do this!

It doesn’t show but I did emboss my deer using Crumb Cake dye ink and Versa Mark.  Create with Kaitlyn has a great picture tutorial on how to heat emboss using dye inks.

Set the panel on the Stamparatus.  Stamp the phrase from the May Good Things Grow stamp set which comes from my March 2018 Paper Pumpkin kit.
