I am also sharing over at Inkspirational, where the theme is Seasonal.
I started by die cutting the tag then stamping and clear heat embossing the tree trio on the tag. I created a mask using the circle die that comes with the set to cover the moon while I used inks to create the night sky, then removed the mask and used the moon stamps in light and medium yellow. I grabbed a scrap of white cardstock, hand cut the top then used the tag die to cut the bottom. After it was adhered to the tag, I added some Star Dust Stickles to the top of the "snow"
The stag and the sentiment were also stamped and clear heat embossed, then die cut with the matching dies. A white gel pen was used to create "stars" in the sky then the die cut pieces were added to the tag. I found a leftover bit of white sparkle ribbon and added that to the top of the tag and tied it off with some silver baker's twine. It was then added to a card base that I found in my stash with the embossed panel already adhered. The final step was to add some of the Star Dust Stickles to the tree branches. It sparkles so much IRL!

That sky behind the deer is amazing Stef - it really highlights the profile of your deer. A gorgeous CAS card!
