Christmas Cardinal

I can NOT get enough of this cardinal!  Here's a quick and easy design for Christmas, especially if you have the matching dies.


supplies: white cardstock, Hero Arts Color Layering Cardinal and Beauty of the Season stamps, Wplus9 Holiday Boughs, VersaFine onyx black and distress inks, Nuvo Autumn Red drops, adhesive foam squares

A little hint for Christmas, or for that matter, whenever you have a stamp that you adore:  while you're stamping one of them, you may as well do a whole page full!  The mini Misti makes that pretty simple nowadays!  Store them right with your stamp set, then you can cut them out as you need them.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I love seeing these cardinals, they are so festive! Hubs and I have 5 pairs in the back yard and woods. When it snows, and they come out to feed there isn't a more lovely sight.
