Deer Dad Birthday Card

This is a cute birthday card I made my husband for his birthday. This is a 5.5" by 8.5" card. I used 4 different cricut cartridges. I also got the inspiration for this card from the fisherman's card on Cardz TV.

The first cartridge I used was the Everyday Paper Dolls cartridge. I cut the body out at 4" on blackout. Then I used the clothes from the fisherman on page 71. I cut the hat, hair, shirt, vest and waders all at 4". I inked around all the detail pieces with brown cat's eye chalk ink and inked the detail cuts on the hat and vest. I also used a stamp from Peachy Keen's Basic Paper Doll Face set.

I cut the deer from the Animal Kingdom cartridge. I cut it at 3" and inked around him with brown cat's eye ink. I also used a black pen and drew over the contour lines of the deer.

I used Plantin Schoolbook for the grass. It is on page 69. I cut it at 8.5" with the fit to length button on the expression. I inked the tips of the grass and the bottom edge with the brown ink also.

I used the Stand and Salute cartridge for the gun. I used the cross rifles found on page 49 and cut it at 1.5 inches. I then cut one of the rifles off so it was a single gun.

The sentiment I typed and printed off the computer.

I pop dotted the hunter, deer and sentiment.

I entered this card in Just Buggin' Challenge #17 and Cupcake Craft Challenge #71. Please go check out these awesome blogs.

Thanks for looking.
