Bits and Pieces - the Reindeer Edition

The last couple of weeks have been abnormally cold, snowy, and icy here so all my usual time spent volunteering with therapeutic riding has been cancelled because of the dangerous conditions.  So that has meant a lot more time in the craft room!

I had a ton of leftover bits and pieces of card making stuff after Christmas.  So I decided to start trying to use some of them up so I spread them out on my desk and tried to combine backgrounds with die cuts, stamped images, sentiments, etc.  Here's a couple of photos of my desk during the process:

I'd pick a background created when playing with some technique or other, or an unused embossing folder background, then some die cuts or a stamped image, then a stamped sentiment, etc. that could go together for a card.  And I tucked each little grouping of things into one of my cellophane card bags and bit by bit, I've put them together over the last few weeks and made a bunch of cards.  I decided I'd post some of them here, just to have a nice record of them, but I'm not writing up descriptions or including the supplies I used as, in most cases, I don't remember!!

Today will be reindeer day as I seemed to have a lot of unused die cut reindeer so put them together with other unused bits to create these cards: 

 

And three stamped reindeers that hadn't been turned into cards (the two using the old SU Dasher stamp had been in my UFO box for years!):

 

Since I need at least 100 Christmas cards made for my sale in November, it felt great to get this many made.  Now I just hope my customers like reindeer.  And trees - you might have noticed there are die cut trees on four of these.  Well, there will be another "Bits and Pieces" post soon as I also had a lot of die cut trees and I turned them into cards as well!

Thanks for taking a look, and if you desperately want to know what anything is on one of these cards, leave me a comment and I'll look for it in my supplies and get back to you.
