JSWAP1008 Christmas Card Swap

Photo Details

Poster: CraftCrazy98

This is the card I made for Jami Sibley's Christmas swap. It was a lot of work but I wanted to do something special since this was the first time I joined one of her swaps. I watercolored the cardinal and then did the cracked glass technique. This is also a Z-fold card. Hope everyone likes it!

Thanks for looking and comments are always appreciated!
