Vintage Deer

Hi, everyone!! It's tough finding time to stamp in the middle of the work week but I couldn't resist this week's ODBD Shining the Light Sketch Challenge!  Though I didn't use Our Daily Bread designs stamps, I did use the new 'Deer Silhouette Greetings' from North Coast Creations, which is ODBD's sister company.  Along with the awesome deer set, I used the ODBD 'Vintage Ephemera Paper Collection' and ODBD Custom 'Vintage Labels' Dies to create this monochromatic, masculine design.  For the image panel, I used the same die for all three layers.  Two were cut and embossed with white, one of which was hand-trimmed on the embossed line and used for the stamping and sponging.  The brown mat was hand-trimmed after tracing the outside of the same die....since the curves of this die were not dramatic, it was fairly easy to cut by hand....even if I did have to stick out my tongue while doing it! :)  I will also be submitting this to the Ways To Use It "Go West" challenge at Splitcoast....with the mercantile themed designer paper and brown tones, I think this will fit right in.

Speaking of ODBD, did you know that you can now purchase Our Daily Bread designs, North Coast Creations, and Artistic Outpost products all in one place?  Woo hoo!!  Get everything on your wish list and pay one shipping charge!!  Just visit Our Daily Bread designs and check it out!!
