The images in this set are just too cute!  Take a look!

For our last hop featuring this set, (which you can find here) I did a lot of two step stamping which this set was made for.  For this hop, I didn't do that just to show the versatility of the set.  You could color in the deer outline or the candles or the letters in season instead of stamping them, for instance.  I simply used the deer in his sweater without the outline and I think he looks darling.  I also took a cue from a few of the samples that SU posted and make a background with the large sentiment and just stamped it randomly (which is super easy since the stamp is photopolymer).

I added some of the plaid print from the Christmas Around The World Designer Series Paper, WHICH is included in the DSP promotion right now.  You're going to want some of that, it's super cute!  And who doesn't love a deer in a sweater and some festive plaid?????

While there isn't any old olive in this particular print, it is a coordinating color in the DSP and I love how the two greens stand out from one another by having the deer stamped on old olive.

I hope you enjoyed my project and I hope you're ready to hop on over to Miriam in the Netherlands.  She's going to knock your socks (or sweater) off!
