Fun Fact: Years ago I was a second grade teacher and today I am going back into the classroom to sub for my niece, Shelby. She is on an ACTS Retreat this weekend. If you have been on an ACTS Retreat, please pray for her as she mentors others closer to Christ. I guess this was not really a fun fact, more of a personal fun fact, but hey at least it is Friday.

Since I am going to be with little people today, I thought my deer card looks like a mom and dad deer watching out for their young one. Yes, that might be a stretch, but it’s possible. I have two cards, the first is a very clean and simple and the second is the same cards, stepped up with some sponging, bling, and a die cut greeting.

I used a Pool Party card base and added a layer of Pecan Pie. The deer are stamped with Pecan Pie and this card came together very quickly, like I said, very clean and simple. This set is Graceful Deer and is in the annual catalog and online.

My second card has the same layering and stamping, with a bit more to step it up! I added some Pool Party sponging for the sky and some Pecan Pie sponging for the ground. I colored the two little birdies with a Real Red blend and added a simple greeting and die from Unbounded Love.

I hope you enjoyed today’s cards. They are perfect for those men in your life who love to hunt! So whether you choose to go simple or step it up, happy stamping!
