~ Oh My Deer...Dream! ~

I am beyond honored and excited to share with you that I am one of La-La Land's Guest Designer's this month!  I have loved their stamps and dies for like EVER!!!  I could not help myself from making a card with La-La Land's new adorable "Spring Woodland Critters" clear stamp set. SWOON!!!  The critters just speak soft dreamy colors to me so I decided to go with lavender.  Doesn't this scene look like the fawn is in a romantic forest with lilac petals floating all around!


I created the dotted background by using Tonic Studio's Lilac Lavender Nuvo Embellishment Mousse and their Beautiful Bokeh 6 x 6 Stencil.

To give the trees that Birch tree look, I brushed on Nuvo Pure Platinum and Gunmetal Grey Embellishment Mousse with my finger.



I watercolored the deer using a mixture Tim Holtz's Distress Markers and Tombow Markers.  
Distress Markers:  Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge, Brushed Corduroy, Black Soot, Spun Sugar, Dusty Concord and Peeled Paint.  Tombow Markers:  990 and N00 (Blender Pen)

To make her nose and the spots on her back stand out I used Nuvo Ebony Black and Simply White Crystal Drops.

La-La Land:  Spring Woodland Critters 

Other Products Used:  Whimsy Stamps:  Hand Stitched Nested Rectangles; Lawn Fawn:  Stitched Hillside Borders; Memory Box: Tall Birch Die; Penny Black: Envision Die; MFT:  Dainty Lace Border and Flat Bottom Cloud Dies; Nuvo Sparkle Dust Glitter; Stampendous Cottonball White Fun Flock

Thank you for sharing in my creative journey that I love so much!!!

Happy Stamping!
