This is for FS807 and Cheryl Hamilton aka alohastamper is our featured artist this week. Congratulations, Cheryl! I had such a great time browsing through your gallery and albums. I finally decided on your Perched in a Tree card.
I kept the bird theme and pretty designer paper background. I changed the season from spring/summer to winter. I added a birdhouse and holly branches for my cardinal to perch on instead of a sentiment layer. I mostly kept with the green and brown color combination with the exception of the red cardinal.

Gorgeous. Love the woodgrain you used to create the birdhouse and the way the snow drips from it's eaves. A wonderful perch for a beautiful bird. The glitter on the holly is lovely. And it's all framed so beautifully with that gorgeous dp. Wonderful card.

Your cardinal is such a brilliant red, Kittie! I love the little snow-capped birdhouse and the dsp with that holly in the corner is perfect. I have to add that this lovely card Cheryl made was already in my faves : )

Beautiful cardinal, of course, but I really love the dusty look of the holly! The birdhouse is fab with the ice and icicles.

Your woodgrain birdhouse with the snowy roof is the perfect backdrop for your gorgeous cardinal!
