I can’t be sure of the exact moment when deer became trendy, but it ‘s happening. I’ve been trying to figure out where I can put this, but in the meantime I thought is would be fun to take a look at all the awesome crafting supplies that will let you put this trend on paper. Today’s post is one that I’ve been working on for some time. It’s a round-up of my favorite “deer” themed products…and of course I have plenty of projects to show you these goodies in action. Let’s go ahead and get this started…because I’ve got a lot to share
The deer trend easily lends itself to a “winter lodge” inspired project. The woodgrain paper is perfectly paired with buffalo gingham and a few pine sprigs. I heat embossed the image with white embossing powder and it worked out perfectly!
RUSTIC WINTER SUPPLIES:
Cherry Real Wood Paper (will be restocked soon) | Meredith McCarty Woodmount Stamps | Wplus9 Heartfelt Holiday | Clear and Simple Stamps Bow Die | Clear and Simple Stamps Gingham Background | Pine Sprig Die
The Nordic Noel set from Amuse Studio is a create focal point for a folky stationery piece. I kept everything red to stay true to the theme. By masking the center portion of the card, I was able to add fair isle to fill in the rest of the otherwise plain, white cardbase.
SIMPLE FOLKART SUPPLIES:
Amuse Studio Nordic Noel | Wplus9 Fair Isle Background Builders | Wplus9 Spring Tags | Wplus9 Folk Art Florals
This card is totally in my wheelhouse. I love modern motifs and Lord knows I love glitter. The leaping deer die is one of my favorites and it’s looks right at home framed by a bold black & white background.
MODERN SPARKLE SUPPLIES:
Memory Box Leaping Deer Die | Hero Arts Tweed Background Stamp | Martha Stewart Gold Glitter | Papertrey Ink Holly Jolly Die Set
This design is perfect for mass production. By using the Delicata metallic gold stamp pad, I got all the sparkle without any of the fuss of heat embossing or glitter. The detailed stag stamp is so very elegant, it can easily stand on it’s own with much else in the design.
GOLDEN ELEGANCE SUPPLIES:
Amuse Studio Winter Stag | Clear & Simple Stamps Build-A-Wreath Winter | Delicata Gold Stamp Pad
The colors and design of this card are very traditional and it’s not difficult to execute – for all of you super last minute crafters! The “Oh Deer” set from Clear & Simple Stamps includes several deer images so you can choose which one you think best fits into your own layout.
TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS SUPPLIES:
Clear & Simple Stamp Oh Deer stamp set | Clear & Simple Stamps Build-A-Wreath Winter | Wplus9 Heartfelt Holiday | Papertrey Ink Santa Stationery (for sentiment)
I’ve shared a lot of holiday and winter themed projects but you can certainly use your deer themed supplies to create a year-round design like this pretty pretty floral design. The florals from WPlus9′s newest stamp set: More Fresh Cut Florals is perfect when arranged around a banner image like this one. A bit of dimensional shading with markers adds a little more sophistication to the design.
FLORAL ROMANCE SUPPLIES:
Clear & Simple Stamp Oh Deer stamp set | Clear & Simple Stamps Alpha Monogram (for wreath image) | Wplus9 Heartfelt Holiday | Wplus9 More Fresh Cuts stamp and die bundle
