Thankful / Give thanks -challenge at Lost Coast Portal to creativity

It's time for a new challenge at

Lost Coast Portal to Creativity

Thankful / Give thanks

I think my card has a bit different view for the theme,

but:

Kind of like how this makes your mind wander... 

I used the Carmen Veranda's Monkey Face stamp

and the die cut is from STAMPlorations 

(cut it twice: from the black foam and then the paper)

Prizes: $15 gift certificate OR choice of any

and choice of 1 ARTplorations stencil to the top picks.

So do join the challenge, we love to see your art.

I made this icy tag using

Christmas Reindeer -stencil

Buttercups and Butteflies -stamp set

I made the background by squeezing paint in the middle

of 2 tags, when dried I covered the tag with watered Gesso.

I also used Gesso with the stencil to get the white delicate deer.

Little bit DI on the edges and around the deer.

Then I stamped the sentiment:

"How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it"

added some die cuts and pearls and of course the white ribbon.
