CARDINAL CHRISTMAS / Mojo #113 & CTD #69...


Apparently nothing says Christmas like a shiny cardinal...


Everyone seems to be getting into the Christmas spirit, and the awesome colors from the Throwdown this week are no exception! I played along with the Mojo sketch, too! I made this card this morning but hated it. So it had some major cosmetic surgery to make it acceptable... here's what it did look like...



... yeah, I was also less than enthused... so I knew I needed to DO SOMETHING, ANYTHING to save it - LOL! I did use a new set, A Cardinal Christmas, which is quite cute. I love cardinals! And the big brown glitter brad is one that I made... the directions are here. I also added some stickles to the cardinal image as well.


Thanks for stopping by!
