My card started with this bell ornament on Saturday's inspiration site, Elizabeth's Embellishments http://www.elizabethsembellishments....-Ornament.html. From it I got the cardinal and the colours of red, green and gold. Then I went looking for layout ideas, and tweaked the SC288 design. Finally, Friday's Free 4 All challenge was related to birds! As usual, IRL the greens of the papers match much better. Although you can't really see it in the pic, the little pine branch is also stamped in Versamark on the horizontal strip. Thanks for taking a peek!

Very pretty Christmas card! I love that cardinal image (I used it for my Christmas cards a couple of years ago) You did a beautiful job coloring it and the gold embossing really makes your card eye catching!
