Happy Thursday, peeps! My brother's birthday is coming up and the Shopping Our Stash challenge is asking for a winter themed card but not Christmas! I used some plaid Christmas papers from Echo Park's The Magic of Christmas, along with a deer diecut and a Birch Wood-embossed piece of woodgrain paper for his birthday card:
My sentiment was a combination of an older Paper Pumpkin "Best Wishes" and a Fiskars "brother"; the pine cones and greenery were from W+9's Merry & Bright. The deer diecut is from Paper Rose; finally I added some black adhesive brads to add a little zip!
Edited to add: I am also going to enter this at the Inspired By challenge for this week as well:
