I decided to finally make my Christmas card using "Campin' Critters." In fact, I made two of them with this cartridge. Here they are:
Both cards are 5 1/2"x4 1/4." I used white cardstock
for their bases. The dark blue snowflake mats are 5 3/8"x4 1/8." I cut another white mat for each card at 4 1/4"x3" and a light blue snowflake mat at 4"x2 7/8." The snowflake patterned papers are from the DCWV Arctic Wishes Stack. I rounded the corners of the small mats. I used a stamp from My Craft Spot for the sentiment on both cards. It came from the "Tis the Season" set. I stamped it with rich cocoa ink by Tsukineko. This whole panel was added to the card base with foam tape.
For the deer card I cut a piece of glittery white cardstock at 3" wide and rounded its bottom corners. I then hand cut it into a curvy shape to simulate a snow bank. The skiing deer is the cut I used from "Campin' Critters" and is on page 29 of the handbook. I cut it at 2 1/2." I finished off this card with three snowflake shaped buttons.
I used the snowmobiling fox cut for my other card. This little guy is on page 53 of the handbook and is cut at 2 1/4." I finished off this card with three silver gems.
I used the sketch at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown for both of my cards.
Oh, these cards are so cute! What a great idea!
