I got this reindeer stamp in a dollar bin last year and hadn't put it to use yet. I stamped it onto white cardstock and colored it with colored pencils, then cut it out by hand. He turned out pretty cute, I think.
Of course he needed a red glitter nose and I added some glossy accents to his scarf, antlers and spots for a little extra shine. I stuck with subtle patterned papers so he would stand out and I love the SU colors Real Red and Pool Party together for a switch from traditional red and green. Here's the Mojo sketch we have to work with this week:
I was inspired to make a Christmas card after seeing this post by Catherine Pooler where she invites anyone to join her in sending Christmas cards to a little boy who is fighting cancer and coping with this hardship by celebrating Christmas with his family a few months early. His name is Nathan and you can check out the news story about him HERE. You'll also find the mailing address there if you'd like to send a card their way. It's a sweet idea and I think I'll join in and send this card to them. Thanks for looking!
