This is the card I was working on today. Tracey from Fred She Said came out with the most awesome Wintry Nature Images of Birds. I love the Chickadees that come to my bird feeders, so I had to make this one first!!!
My Branches w/berries and pine cones are some stickers from Martha Stewart that were available last year at Christmas. The Noel is a Recollection sticker.
I used Spellbinders Labels, Martha Stewart Loopy Punch Around the page punch, ribbon, stickles, and red rhinestones.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look today. I appreciate it. It is 88 degrees here today and I am working on Christmas cards!!! Yesterday it was the same temperature and I made Candy apples. It is suppose to cool off this weekend-that's when I will want to eat ice cream!!! lol

Carol - this is so yummy - I think you should send it to me for Christmas! What a great stamp - I so wish I wasn't on total stamp restriction or I would get it (maybe, I will get some birthday money....keep your fingers crossed). I love that you recreated the red berries off the image and you colored that image absolutely fabulously.
I know what you mean about the weather - it has been super warm here too - at least we can pretend it is cold with our cards. Candy apples? I so wish you lived a little bit closer.....
