ADFD Use a Die Cut


Clearly I had a bit of a struggle getting my creep on this weekend so I came up empty for my HDH project this week.  My mojo seems to have flown the coop so in an attempt to lure it back I decided to just do a challenge I've been wanting to do, but haven't been able to find the time for.  Every fortnight I rush over to the ADFD Blog to see the challenge and even go so far as to plan it all out in my head, but life, or DT obligations, always seem to get in the way.  I have loads of new ADFD digis just begging to be colored, but when I saw the challenge was Use a Die Cut, I knew immediately which one I would choose.  This recently purchased floral wreath is a Memory Box die and I thought it would look beautiful with one of the fab deer from the June Club Kit.  (Of course I belong to the Club, who doesn't love a bargain?)  Anyway, this is Uncle Buck.  He looks so majestic with the butterflies on his antlers, don'tcha think?



The kraft mat is embossed with my new Wicker Cuttlebug folder and the window was cut with Nesties Labels Three.  The buck is colored with Copics with some pencil action defining his fur.  I printed him twice, fussy cut and popped him, along with the mats and wreath and then added another layer of 3 of the butterflies for further dimension.  the sentiment is a peel off, colored black with a Sharpie and black adhesive beads adorn the corners.

I'm also entering this in the One Crazy Stamper July "Kraft" Color ChallengeOOzak Anything Goes with Texture, 613 Avenue Creative Anything Goes/Optional Birthday, Robyn's Fetish Things with Wings Challenge, the Allsorts Fur and Feathers Challenge, Totally Papercrafts All Aflutter, A.R.T. Masculine Birthday Challenge and Sweet Pea Stampers for Men/Boys Challenge.
