Oh Deer!

 
Hello and welcome.  Today I have what should be a quick and easy card to share for a few challenges.  I say "what should be" because this one took me a week thanks to a migraine rebound and my asthma/COPD flaring up again.  

I started out by dusting off an unloved Stampin Up reindeer punch, then punching four reindeer from scrap chocolate chip card stock and setting aside.  I then took a red card panel and dry embossed it using a never before used, and quite dusty, Sizzix Dearly embossing folder along with my big shot.  After adding that to a green card base, and sponging ruby red ink over it, I then added the punched reindeer using glue dots.  Taking a white card stock scrap, I stamped the saying from a long retired Stampin Up set Holiday Best, I received as a RAK, in spruce ink before sponging the same on the edges.  After adding the saying to the card, I then added some green/gold organdy ribbon.  The final touches were wooden Christmas trees I received as a RAK, googlie eyes on the reindeer, and then red/black/gold ice stickles to highlight the reindeer's nose.
