Over the Roof Tops...

That's were this reindeer is!  I don't know how many of you have seen the movie, 'Prancer', but it is one of my all-time favorite Christmas movies (along with White Christmas) and this reindeer reminds me of Prancer.  
'Prancer' is one of several silhouette stamps in Korin's new release, Christmas Silhouettes.   Without further ado...
  
 Welcome to day 5 of our September feature Blog Hops!  
Today we're featuring Korin's beautiful new Christmas Silhouettes stamp set and coordinating dies.



I started this card with masking a moon and masking my snowy ground.  Then I sponged Night of Navy and Midnight Muse onto the panel, darker on the bottom and gradually getting lighter towards the moon.  I sponged just a hint of yellow ink on a portion of the moon and then stamped the reindeer.  I stamped the houses, using a T-square ruler to line them up and added smoke from the chimneys by 'painting' on white craft paint with a Q-tip.  The sentiment is popped up on dimensionals. I added thinestones, a snowflake trinquet and 2 leaves made with the Small Leaves dies.  


This card is a much more traditional card using the holly silhouette image.  I heat embossed the leaves in white ep on green cs and fussy cut them out (but you do not have to do that as there are now dies available to do the hard part for you!) and framed the sentiment from the Mod Ornaments set with them.  A little cream ribbon, embossing, a scalloped edge and pearls finish off the card. 
Here are the details on all of the new goodies with this set-
 

  • Stamp set includes 6 images and 6 mix & match sentiments
  • Set measures approximately 4" x 6"
  • The tree image measures approximately 1 1/2" x 3"

  3. Lee Ann, both of your cards are just awesome!! I love the winter's night scene with "Prancer" flying high over those sweet little houses. And your night sky sponging blends so beautifully around that awesome, awesome moon!! Lee Ann, it's a wonderful card. I LOVE it! Now let's talk about that second card! What an exquisite card with that beautiful embossing ~ just gorgeous. Seriously, Lee Ann, it's beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your vision and talent. I really love the September release sets. I've always tired to get my handmade Christmas cards finished and failed miserably. I think these sets are going to give me that boost I need to finish the job this year *wink*

    BTW: I love White Christmas and watch every year. I remember my great-aunt Eva taking me to the movie house downtown to see this movie when it opened (that's how old I am *laughing*) We were all dressed up and I had my Christmas coat on with a little hand muff. Boy I thought I was big stuff *laughing*

    Thank you again for these beautiful cards today. As Kathy/North Carolina said, "You are incredibly talented!"

  4. Both of these are gorgeous!! I love the layout and your sponging on the first card. Great idea to have the reindeer in the air. :) I'm not sure if I have seen "Prancer" all the way from the beginning. But maybe it will be on this Christmas! :) Your second card is amazing! I love the colors you chose, and those dies must make the cutting out SO much easier! Thanks for sharing!
