Vicki has a beautiful gallery and I found a Christmas card that reminded me of the cardinal image I had stamped, but not done anything with. The image was stamped with cherry cobbler, on kraft and cut with circle Nestabilities, using the out of the box technique, then popped up with foam tape. Rough Around the Edges wheel was used on the artichoke strip and the cherry cobbler BG panel was embossed with the Cuttlebug. The card base is kraft, linen thread was tied around the snippet of ribbon and a couple of mini brads were used to attach the sentiment. Here's the link to Vicki's card.

This is great. I have this image but struggle with using it. I love the monochromatic way you handled it. Also, like to see that cool ribbon treatment and the nice distressing on the panel.

Sue, I just love the Cherry Cobbler and Kraft together. Your out of the box main cardinal image is just wonderful. Really like your ribbon treatment and speckled layer and beautiful EB background too. Love it all. TFS
