Another Christmas Card!

Hi friends!  I hope you had a Merry Christmas if you celebrate this wonderful holiday!  We had a nice time visiting family and a few friends as well!

 

I had to make a few last minute Christmas cards and I'm just getting around to posting them, well one actually.  I made about six of these!  I made this same card last February or March as a birthday card, and at that time thought it would make a great Christmas card.  So I took that design and did just that!

 

I started with the background stamp and stamped it in gray ink.  Then I went to work on the cardinal.  I die cut it first, then stamped it in red and black inks.  I die cut a tag, attached the gray branch (which was also die cut) and stamped the sentiment.  I added the ribbon and twine and then the bird with dimensional tape.  The tag was attached to the base and I added some sequins to finish it off. 

 

Thanks for stopping by!
