The background is an elusive images stamp, stamped onto vellum with copper brilliance ink. I've stamped the reindeer (from Tim Holzt) onto acetate, embossed with copper dreams EP and then added Cosmic Shimmer Autumn Twinkles on the reverse (it looks black on the scan but its really a scrummy colour). The frame is made from some copper embossed card from my stash, it looked a bit plain so I added some little stampbord squares (copper brilliance, stamped with black stazon and triple embossed). The plaque and sentiment are both from Elusive images, coloured with glimmer mist and the letters highlighted with some glossy accents
For the following challenges:
Fab's Big Christmas Challenge - tone on tone
Bah Humbug - embossing
Susie and Vicky's Christmas Club - Reindeetr
ABC Christmas Challenge - G is for glitz
and Gingersnaps GC47 - Copper Ginger or Rust

Love this Claire, I agree with you it's so hard to find something suitable for men. The copper colour is great and it looks so textured, sure to be a winner with your BIL.
