Christmas Cardinal

Working on my Christmas cards, so I will give you some sneak peeks along the way. Cardinals are my favorite bird, so when I saw these little red glittery buttons I just had to get them. That bright red bird against a green pine tree or crystal white snow is truly amazing.

To make this card I used Graphic 45 Christmas paper that I found at the Flying Unicorn store. I added a little red door, so the sentiment hides inside. "Best wishes". There is a lot of Stickles but I just can't get a good photo of that. Oh well.....some red fiber trim and touches of gold paint were added as the final details.

Hope you will see a truly amazing sight this wee.
sincerely, gerri
