What a lovely site for today's inspiration challenge! While pretty, all that pink, lace & ruffles really isn't me, lol. I took my inspiration from THIS. I like the birds but I made mine red/white instead of red/cream.
I die cut the beautiful bird in white, traced around the die on red then fussy cut it to attach behind the white die cut version. The sentiment was stamped on white & I used a bracket border die to cut the bottom. I used another die from the border set to cut the red layer beneath it. A red snowflake & some red and clear crystals were added to finish my 5.50 x 4.25 card.
Thanks so much for looking! It's also on my blog: The Write Stuff

I love the entire thing! It looks so elegant. I've always eyed the Spellbinders brackets dies, but I just couldn't envision actually using them enough to justify the purchase. Seeing this is making me rethink that. Thanks for sharing!

Gorgeous card...love the bird and the borders! I almost picked those as my inspiration, too...even though they may not have been your style you really created something beautiful.
