White Christmas

It's been busy, busy, busy around here, but I managed to squeeze in a card. I had this idea in my head for a few days and it wasn't working out too well, but I just wouldn't let it go! I really annoy myself when this happens, because I know I'd be more productive if I just forgot about it and moved on! So I kept at it and this is the result.


Hero Arts have got a Holiday Card Challenge and one of the themes is 'White Out'. Every year I like to give this a try, because I love White on White.  I've noticed from Pinterest and Google that the best examples have layers and different texture to achieve a good result. The only Christmas HA stamps I  have are this leaf wreath stamp and a Sentiment stamp set.
I white embossed the wreath on vellum and die cut the panels with Lil' Inkers stitched circle dies.  The sentiment is from HA Miracle of the Holiday. I coloured the wooden stag head with silver paint and added some white pearls and silver sequins. 



ETA: I'm entering this card in the Simon Wednesday Challenge, which is Anything Goes this week.
