Reindeer for Just Add R and FabFri 125

 When I saw the theme for Just Add Ink #386 was Just Add R, I immediately thought of reindeer.  After looking at a few options, I finally settled on the Nature Sings stamp set.  I wanted to feature the large reindeer (or caribou) as the focal point of this card and the sketch from FabFri 125 was the perfect way to do just that.

I used the four panels from the sketch to create a forest with the deer and lots of trees.  I used the stamp off technique to create the forest both on the four panels on the outside of the card and on the card interior as well.  I used a Blender Pen on the large reindeer immediately after stamping while the ink was still wet, to help fill in the lines and create an overall darker colored in image.  I used the Stitched Shapes framelit and attached it with dimensionals on the front of the card.

This card was entered in both FabFri 125 and Just Add Ink 386.  Check out their challenge pages to see the inspiration cards by the design team and other creative entries.
