Reindeer Games: Fun with Punches

I couldn't help noticing the large flourish looks like a loopy antler (to me anyway!) so I came up with a simple reindeer you can make with punches you are likely to have.

Punch two flourishes for your antlers, and a designer label for the face trimming off one end with a curve. Snip two petals off a flower punch for ears, add some self adhesive rhinestones for eyes and nose (which is colored with a red Copic) and you're done! You could of course draw your own details but I like this simple bling! ;)

I framed him up in an embossed Nestie rectangle and added "Happy Holidays" from the "Magic of Christmas" there were a number of greetings I could have out here but the scale of this one worked the best for my layout. I stamped it in Basic Brown to balance out my dark brown antlers. Everything is adhered with Dot'n'Roller. This is such a fun look, easy to mass produce, and would be a great way to get your kids involved in the production line! I'll be back with how you can add this face to a homemade box to make a gift or treat holder...

(Now that I'm looking at it again, it's kinda also looking like I mounted Rudolph's poor head on the wall! What do you think, too "trophy-looking"...? If you feel you must add a body, have fun seeing what you have to create a little tummy and legs, hee hee! The part that everyone is going to notice anyway is that fabulous rack!!!)
