Festive Deer

 Putting this card together didn't go exactly as planned.  Has that ever happened to you?  The plan was to have eyelets hold the ribbon in place.  Well, I was so excited to find my Crop-A-Dile.  I had to dust it off but - no problem.  It took me a little bit of thinking again how to use the thing but I had it all set the eyelets were in place and I squeezed the tool but bam it got stuck!  I had to pull it apart only for the thing to fall apart in my hands - eek!!  So my Crop-A-Dile is now in my trash can.  Thank goodness I had just moved my stapler a couple days ago or believe me I would not have even known were to begin looking for that thing.  So I dug that out and found - to my amazement red staples and used those to fold my ribbon on to my tag.  It wasn't the look I was going for but...well it worked.  The stamp set is an old from from Stampin' Up.  I have no idea how old - not as old as my Crop-A-Dile. LOL  But, it was the first time I think I've used the set.  Thanks so much for reading my story and stopping by to see what I've been up to.  Have a great day!
