Stag with Interchangeable Antlers and Lights Card

A project from our live show HSN PRODUCT INSPIRATION - Join me for a fun filled show broadcast 1st September 2026 · 01/09/2026

Create a stunning festive card featuring a dimensional stag with interchangeable antlers decorated with sparkling lights. This luxury design uses rich browns, golds and reds against a dramatic dark woodland background with pine cones and berries. The main techniques include die-cutting, layering dimensional elements, and weaving decorative lights through the antlers for a glamorous finish suitable for any recipient.
