Another Cardinal

This is another card I've done with the Cardinal Christmas set. I really love this set. Anyway Julie and I decided to do the Sweet Stop Sketch challenge and they had a twist on it, which was winged things. So I decided on the cardinal, Julie did a beautiful butterfly.

Sketch Challenge

Merry Christmas in April, I know crazy, but with the number of cards I need, I'll be doing them all year round or at least a few each month, and this was a perfect sketch at Stamping 411 for the cardinal.
Thanks for looking.

Punched Cardinal

This card came about when I seen the Mojo Monday sketch this week. I had the bird done from when I was doing Christmas cards before the holidays, but since I will need about 200 this year or there abouts, I figured I'd keep trying to do at least one or two a week. This also falls in line with another blog that I participate in the challenges Friday Mashup which has the theme of birds this week.

Silver Bells

Hi Everyone, I guess it has been a while since I posted. Just been really busy. The last post I noticed was the first of the month. Well it's been a busy two weeks, I was in charge of organizing the Seniors Christmas Dinner at the co-op where I live which was this past Sat. and before that I was involved in a craft fair, which was just before the last post. And it was very successful. Anyway here is my take on the Stamping 411 sketch this week.
Thanks for taking a look.
