Today's Twisted Sister challenge was to create a religious Christmas card. (The real reason for the season)
I don't have any Christmas or winter stamps other than snowmen because my daughter creates my cards. Soooo I went to Mike's and spotted these rub-ons. I had a TS coupon (thanks Pat) in my hand and got them for 50% off. Hope this counts. I really struggled with this one..

Fantastic! A beautiful card! Great layout and papers with those sparkly birds! Like Pat, I thought you had colored these! I don't think I'd even want to color in my DD's coloring books after seeing this!

Great Christmas card! These Chickadees are adorable, a look great against the Soft Suede. Great contrast with the bold pattern of the designer paper. TFS. Linda

What a stunning image of those little birdies with their frosty tummies, I love the brads, isn't it a blessing that we don't have to stay outside and get frosty tummies at Christmas-time.

Wow!! That's a rub on??? Sure has a lot of depth of colour to it, Dawn!! Here I was thinking - how did Dawn get so much depth of colour on Kraft!! Beautifully done!!
