I realize this image is, most likely, an elk. It's the closest thing I had to an antelope image, though, and I wanted a card to say "congrats" to my mighty antelope hunter. I used the Nature Silhouettes stamp set and stamped the images in Chocolate Chip classic ink on Apricot Appeal CS. I punched a circle with the 1 1/4" circle punch and used it as a mask while stippling Bermuda Bay and Apricot Appeal classic ink over the images. I removed the mask and wah-lah... I had a moon. The Apricot Appeal and Bermuda Bay background layers were textured using a Cuttlebug embossing folder. After each piece was embossed, I rubbed the corresponding ink pad over the raised part to make it darker, which gave it more texture. I added a piece of Apricot Appeal ribbon, but I'm not really sure the card needed it. I may change my mind about that part and take it off later. We'll see... Let me know what you think!
Toodles,
