Stampin' Up! Peaceful Deer ~ Sketch Saturday

 

Today's card was inspired by Sketch Saturday's Sketch #713!  I'm going to admit, I did not look at this sketch before choosing my stamp set of the week, which is Peaceful Deer by Stampin' Up!  I wasn't sure for a bit how I was going to make it work, but once I sat and started playing with it, it came together very quickly.    

It's very hard to see in the photos, but the Night of Navy background panel is subtly embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder.  The ribbon was attached on the back of the panel with Tear & Tape, then the bow was tied around it. Stampin' Dimensionals were used to attach the Night of Navy panel, the Balmy Blue circle, the Night of Navy circle and the deer.  I did double up the Stampin' Dimensional under the deer's tush to make it the same height as the rest of it.
