This is the first card I did for Irene today. I'm still not sure I'm happy w/ it. Using our bird book, I tried to color this like the Goldfinch that live around here. Last summer one even layed a single egg on our deck railing. Anyway, my card is based, Winter Wonderland, seen here: CAS105 Winter Wonderland by DandI93 at Splitcoaststampers
My base card is Real Red that I embossed w/ this fancy frame, the bird is MS & is cut w/ Creative Memories oval cutter. It is colored w/ WC crayons & blender pen.
Once again, congratulations Irene. I hope you like my version of your card.
Thanks for stopping by to take a look.

very pretty Karen, you did a fabulous job coloring the goldfinch, he's not an easy bird to do. It's so awesome to see so many of these around the bird feeder in the summer, we have very patience goldfinches, unlike our hummingbirds, that chase other hummingbirds away. Love the embossing folder you chose, so glad you could play today and case one of my cards, big hugs, Irene

Very cool frame. I don't know a lot about birds, but this one looks realistic and beautiful to me. Super coloring. Wish I would have had time to do two cards - I adore Irene's gallery - one day I am going to do that view finder card she did yesterday.
