Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I'm back to making Christmas cards. Not only are they my favorite
kind of cards to make, but I do love having a good supply when it's time to mail them.
I've stamped this NBUS (Never Before Used Schtuff) stamp with Embossing Ink
on a piece of smooshed background and heat embossed.
(Smoosh done with Bashful Blue, Marina Mist, Not Quite Navy re-inkers
and Frost White Paint)
The die cut image is popped up on foam and I've tucked some sparkly
snowflakes under the corners.
While I was at it, I stamped again on a piece of mop up and embossed in black.
(Mop up Peeled Paint Distress Ink)
Two for the Christmas box!

These are stunning! That deer stamp is amazing and I have never heard of that company....you did them proud, that's for sure!
Two fabulous cards Bonnie...love a stag...I have to say you are well on track for Christmas 2021! xx
What stunning cards, Bonnie. I love the both but the blue one had me doing the whole 'jaw drop' routine! Thanks for playing at Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
Two fantastic cards Bonnie and I love this Studiolight silhouette deer, in white and in black it looks great, in fact I used it quite a bit last year and will get it out for an outing for this Christmas I think as it is so pretty. I love the arched shape die you have used and love the glittery snowflakes behind it, and the mop up piece in that pretty green is perfect for the contrasting black version and love the woodgrain embossing on the base card and the black mat, and also the white on black sentiment strip across the card. x
The deer looks fantastic on both the blue and green, gorgeous designs Bonnie, Cathy x
I know what you mean Bonnie and might as well make them when it's chilly enough to imagine Christmas! Your cards are both wonderful and very inspiring pieces of embossed art! Thank you for joining us at ATCAS for our embossing challenge this fortnight! Vicky x
Two beautiful cards, Boonie. I love the silhouette deer. xx
WOW! I love that deer stamp you used Bonnie, and I have never heard of that stamp company before either! I love both cards but the 1st one with the blues and white is just jaw dropping BEAUTIFUL!! Frame worthy my friend! And psssst...I'm still enjoying making Christmas cards too!! Hugs. :0)
Both cards are fantastically beautiful, Bonnie! The stamp is so cool and your backgrounds make the cards all that much more special. I, too, am working on next year's cards, but really enjoying anything BUT at the same time.
Love that stamp Bonnie and the beautiful cards you made. The black one is a stunner :)
LOVE this awesome stamp Bonnie! You have created two very amazing cards! LOVE both designs and colours! xx
Stunning cards Bonnie.

Two great cards Bonnie. Love the stamped image and your lovely backgrounds. The blue one is my favorite. I like how the glittery snowflakes peek from the corners.
These are SO artsy! My gosh I just love them. That stamp is phenomenal and your card designs are so perfect for it. Two fabulous cards!
Wow, I love both of these cards Bonnie! The first one is so pretty, it reminds me of a snow globe with that shape. I love how you tucked those shimmery, sparkly snowflakes behind the deer. Loving that inky background too, so neat the way it looks like it is snowing! Cool stamp too. Your second card is equally beautiful, loving that inky background too. The sentiment is so fun! Hugs, Brenda
Striking stamped image and both cards are fabulous Bonnie x. Well done on making Christmas cards x.
Absolutely gorgeous cards, Bonnie! Your white silhouette is so pretty and I love how you created your smooshed background on the first card and the mop-up on the 2nd one...WOW! Honestly, I can't choose a fave! Thanks so much for playing along with us at ATCAS and for joining in the fun at CAS Christmas...it's always wonderful to see your creations in both galleries ~ Barb xx
oh WOW! what beautiful, amazing cards! not to mention a great combination of old and new goodies! so pleased you could join our JINGLE BELLES fun in 2021!
Oh that blue card! Wow, so wintry and frosty. Love it, Bonnie! I totally get that you like to make Christmas cards and then you have a good stash at the end of the year. It's a wise idea! Happy New Year :)
Fabulous pair of reindeer cards, Bonnie - just love them both!!
They're gorgeous, Bonnie! Similar, yet so uniquely beautiful
What a wonderful reindeer stamp! I'll have to look for it. You created two fabulous cards with it, especially the first one with the sparkly die cuts behind the focal image.
Both deer cards are fantastic, Bonnie! Wonderful backgrounds (smooshed and mop-up) and fabulous designs! The scripts over the deer silhouette is so cool!

Two beautiful backgrounds for your wonderful Deer image, Bonnie. I loved your colors on your backgrounds, die cut snowflakes on your 1st card and sentiment on your 2nd card. Every detail of both cards are so perfect. TFS your beauties, my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
Wonderful stamp, and stunningly used against those two marvelous backgrounds Bonnie. you have created two dramatic cards!
Stay safe
Blessings

I saw this on Kick Start Christmas - love both of the cards.
A duo of lovely Christmas cards for your stash. No surprise, i gravitated to the first one with that gorgeous blue background.
Love it, and what a sparkly kind of card, great job! The deer is amazing. Thanks for playing our Stamp Act Challenge at Krafty Chicks.

Nice, same stamp but two very different appeals. Both are gorgeous, great work xx
that image is perfection with the smooshed backgrounds ... so glad you shared both your new & old with us at Jingle Belles.
Love both of these Bonnie - what great stamps and wonderful backgrounds! xx
Your card caught my eye in the NBUS challenge & I am so glad it did - BOTH your cards are stunning!!
It looks like a snowball. A wonderful, contrasting card, beautifully brightened with glitter snowflakes. And a second card with a stunning background. They are both wonderful
