Reindeer Fun Merry Christmas

It is Thursday which means it is time for a new Create with Stamping Friends Challenge!  This week the challenge is a sketch challenge.

This is a great basic sketch and one that can be used with lots of different images.  Definitely one to keep in your sketch bank.

How to make the reindeer

• Early Espresso CS base
• Basic Beige CS middle
• Pecan Pie top

I like this layering as the little light color/Basic Beige creates a great highlight to the reindeer's eyes.   Here are some other color combinations.

• Basic White CS layer 4" x 5-1/4"
• Sentiment from the Reindeer Fun stamp set inked in Garden Green ink
• Reindeer Days DSP 3/4" x 5-1/4" strip
• Holly cut using the Reindeer Fun dies in Granny Apple Green and Real Red CS
