For today's sketch challenge I used a brand-new stamp set from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company, called Joyous Season. In place of the three little flags in the sketch, I used a Christmas brad which says Holiday Wishes. (Sorry, but I couldn't get the writing on the brad to photograph clearly.)

Great job with this card Lois!! I like the birch bg that you created with the embossing folder, and then the piece of dp that has the greens on it. Your coloring is very nice too. Great creativity!!

Birtch trees & Cardinals=my favorites! I like your matching ef with the stamped image, Lois! And who can resist a fawn? Well, the male cardinal couldn't! Love the greenery he's lying on and how it continues with the dp~
