Used Cricut cartridge Doodlecharms & Gypsy to make this Clean & Simple CAS Reindeer shaped Christmas card for a child. Cut 2 images of the Reindeer. Used red tape to attach front to back for shaped card since the reindeer antlers did not allow for shaping card otherwise with Gypsy. Stamped sentiment. used a Sakura GellyRoll ClearStar pen for faux stitching.
Photographed with a plush my daughter gave me several yrs ago. My fav Christmas theme besides Snoopy & Woodstock is a Reindeer. I think I'll make another card and use different shades of brown, white for inside ears & black nose to resemble the plush more.

So cute! A child would love this card! Thanks for joining us at Use It Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on that reindeer card - I have made several shaped cards using the Gypsy - I hope my Gypsy last forever! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteMy Gypsy bit the dust last yr when a security breach message came up on it. Phoned Provo Craft and they had me mail it back for replacement. They give you a new one with same serial number as former and the warranty is not extended but remains whatever you had before. I know Gypsy products are no longer sold in stores. I bought mine from Michaels when they had a special sale and they had a promo of free cartridge loads on it. When I got my replacement back I got the free loads back but had to reload all my cartridges I had. I recommend you do backups.
