‘A Cardinal Christmas’ card

Okay, so this is my *new* favorite Christmas stamp set… I love birds!  See below for card cutting dimensions…

I colored the cardinal in with watercolor crayons that I didn’t actually color with… what I mean is that I like to use the open set as a ‘palette’ and take the colors that I need.  Less color is better… the artwork is done for you… just use the suggestion of color!

A Cardinal Christmas

I forgot the name of this fold… is it joy/luck fold?  Also I cut out the bird and superimposed it on a background piece (detail left).

 

RECIPE if you want to do this for your holiday card:

5 ½ x 8 ½ Kiwi Kiss cardstock
   cut off the right edge 1 ½ inch short
6 7/8 x 3 ½ Riding Hood Red c/s
   scored at 4 inches
Two – 2 ½ x 3 inch White cardstock
   one will cut out and one will be the background
¾ x 2 inch Whisper White cardstock
2 ¾ x 3 ¼ inch. black cardstock
1 x 2 ½ inch Riding Hood Red
Kiwi Kiss dye ink, StazOn Black,
Riding Hood Red 5/8 inch striped grosgrain
Earth Elements Watercolor Crayons
