Merry Monday # 231 Reindeer

Welcome Friends to another Merry Monday Challenge!
I thought it would be fun to see all the kinds of "reindeer" we have in our stash!
I love this soft serene scene...wow is that an alliteration or what?
This is what I used:
SSS Birch Tree Window
IO Deer Trio (used only one!)
MFT Stitched Rectangle Scallop Frame
Distress Inks for blending background
Please go to the Merry Monday Challenge and see what the team has made to inspire you to join us this week with a reindeer as your focal point!

Heart Hugs, friends!

What a lovely card with that snowy forest and that adorable fawn. I happened to notice Darnell's comment that your card "forced" her to buy lots of new stuff. I can totally see it. Judy, step away from the buy now button!
