I used a sweet deer die (Deer Trio from Impression Obsession), cut from kraft card stock, with added details for the eyes and hoofs and sponging around the outside of the die-cut. To finish, I popped up the deer over the background and then popped the whole panel on top of my card base. The sentiment (Snowglobe Sayings - retired from My Favorite Things) is stamped in Gathered Twigs distress ink.
I'm sending this card over to the Peace on Earth Challenge #29. LOVE the mood board and used the top right photo as my inspiration for my card. :)
I'm also playing along with the Stencil Fun December challenge. It's Stenciling - Anything Goes each month with optional twist (December - Holiday). :)

This snowflake background is so pretty using the Salvaged Patina ink Loll, and love the die cut deer cut from kraft with just some shading and his eyes and nose added as well as his hooves emphasised with the black marker, which works really well, also your added white torn card snow hills finish the scene beautifully. x
That stencil has worked so well for the snowy backdrop for your deer. Love the soft ombre effect and the lovely brown of the dear and sentiment give perfect contrast. Your gorgeous Christmas card arrived today, thanks so much xx
Sweet and beautiful stenciled snow background for your die cut deer image. Loved your added details to the deer. I am getting inspired to start making a few Christmas cards for...2023:-) TFS Lolly. Love and Hugs...Nancy
Beautiful card, love the background stenciling, the ombre looks so amazing. The perfect backdrop for this cute deer.

Your snowflake stenciled background is so delicately beautiful. Whisper quiet for your snowy landscape and the deer. Rather breathtaking really. I can't stop looking at that gorgeous sky.
Too bad that stencil is retired, Loll. Usually you stencil the snowflakes themselves and not the background. I love your little deer with all the details. Great winter card!
What a beautiful peaceful card! Love the soft background and the way it fades out! CAS perfection!
Me again - forgot to say, thank you so much for joining us at Peace on Earth.
Such a pretty snowstorm stenciled on this card, Lolly! Love the sweet deer with the added details that bring him alive!
What a great stencil, this is wonderful!
Beautiful stenciled background, love the ombre colour going to white. It's a perfect background for your deer♥
A sweet card Loll - love your ombre stencilling and the fabulous die cut deer in the foreground
Blessings

Such a pretty stencil Loll, why do companies always retire the good lines?!
Those IO deer die cuts are just so useful aren't they. :)
One of my all time fave ink shades here Lolly! It works so well giving an icy feel. Great card as ever my friend.
PS - Christmas card arrived safely, thank you! We're undergoing several postage strikes here in the UK am keeping everything crossed all my overseas cards get where they're supposed to go in time. xx
Oh Loll, this is simply BEAUTIFUL! Well done! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our STENCIL FUN challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often. We appreciate your support!

This snowflake stencil has the most beautiful snowflakes in it. The Salvaged Patina is a gorgeous color in your ombre background. It is a treat for the eyes after so much greyness here.
So simple but absolutely BEAUTIFUL Loll...LOVE it! Hugs. :0)
Your beautiful ombre background is perfect for this stately deer, Lolly! The texture of the snowy ground looks like real deer-trampled snow! Love, Dolly
What a terrific stencil to use behind your stag! He sure looks happy to be amongst the flakes
Beautiful. Love the soft ombré stencilling.
Gorgeous Christmas card. I love your stenciled snowflake background, and the little deer is so cute xx
This is SO pretty Loll with your beautiful fade out of the snow stenciling - love the face on your cute little deer peering out at us as is startled! xx
Beautiful CAS card Loll, love the ombre effect showcasing those fabulous snowflakes. Your stag looks so majestic and just belongs in this scene. Love it! Hugs, Brenda
This is sooo pretty, Loll! Love the softly stenciled snowflakes background and the sweet deer. The added shading makes a big difference. I love MFT's Snow Globe Sentiment stamp set so much that I bought another set before it retired. ;-)
