Priscilla's Papercrafts: Dashing Deer

One of the prettiest new stamp sets in the Holiday catalog is Dashing Deer. When I attended a demo get-together a few weeks ago, one of the cards we made used this beautiful set, along with Shimmer Paint. Wowza! What a combo:

Stamping with Blueberry Bushel, and embossing on the Galvanized Metallic Paper makes a beautiful card!

Add a little Shimmer Paint:

Oh. Em. Gee! So gorgeous!

To get this effect, we mixed a few drops of Blueberry Bushel reinker with the Frost White Shimmer Paint. Then we sponged it directly on our stamp, and stamped on Whisper White cardstock. You must work fairly quickly, and be sure to wash your stamp well when done (and then clean/recondition it with Stampin' Mist), but it leaves a shimmery image in the color of your reinker.

The card base is Blueberry Bushel; the Galvanized Metallic Sheet was embossed with the Swirls & Curls embossing folder. I cut my deer with the coordinating Detailed Deer Thinlits dies and popped it up on an oval cut with the Layering Ovals.
