Yesterday I shared a card I made with the Horse & Sleigh Bundle (if you missed it, you can see it here). At the center of the painted forest I used as the base for my sleigh was a sweet, little deer with big, pointed ears. SO ADORABLE! I certainly didn’t want to hide the deer, so I cropped him out with a circle die and covered that circle with a larger circle. Today I’m sharing the sweet deer that was cropped from that page:
I mean, really. How sweet is he?! I showcased the adorable deer against a pattered page (also from the Open Horse Sleigh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. Because this sweetheart is the focal point of my card, here’s a closer look:
And here’s the original page from which I cropped him:
While I could certainly have built a card around this picture of the deer in the forest, I was able to make two sweet cards with this page. Yay, me! Here’s a look at some of the pages and colors in the One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (this photo shows have of the pages in the pack):
The sentiment on my card is stamped with Pebbled Path ink on Thick Basic Black and cropped with the coordinating Wonderful Thoughts Dies. What a great combination! Here’s a look at this wonderful, new bundle:
I love the neutral tones in the pages I used from this pack of papers – I love them so much that I framed the focal point with warm, coordinating colors. If you love this mix of Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake and Pebbled Path as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:

That is the cutest little deer AND card!
I’m so glad you shared this card! When I read yesterday’s blog post, I thought to myself- oh “deer”, Brian covered that adorable little deer! Should’ve known you were too smart to not do that! Love both cards! Thank you!
Ridiculously cute, Brian – I think I have to CASE this one!! 🙂
This is a totally delightful card!
It’s interesting that this deer sheet is not included in the graphic you show, or on the SU website. The website only shows 6 of the 12 double-sided designs.
If Online Exclusives is going to work, SU has to do better at presenting the products. I have contacted them about this. Maybe they’ll listen better to you.
Love, love, love that DSP. Great job getting two cards from one sheet. The little deer is so sweet! Enjoy your day!
Yay you!
Sweet card! That DSP is awesome!
Stunning and simply beautiful!
Adorable! Just like you to make me re-think that DSP.
I really liked your card today and how clever of you to get 2 cards from 1 paper! I was especially excited to note your color combinations and am saving them for future use. Thanks for the inspiration!
Awww…. that little baby looks amazing ! so sweet!
Brian, sorry I missed the card exchange. Broke my leg in Portugal while on vacation and can’t easily get down to my craft room in lower level. At least I got to see one castle before we had to leave Lisbon early. Please hold another one at Christmas and next summer!
Brian, this is the sweetest card! Love your work!
