What beautiful elegant cards Bonnie and the silver foil and the white embossed panels are stunning on both, and the pretty bird on a branch used on both looks amazing. x
ReplyDeleteWOW! Both are so beautiful, I love those birds and the leaves.

OH, you are going to get CASEd again, my friend!!! What a spectacular idea! They are both SO gorgeous! Man do I wish that frame/EF on card 2 was still available!
ReplyDeleteOf course, you know you had me at grey, right?

I was so in love with that stamp set but couldn't figure other ways to use it. You just showed me, Bonnie, and now I may need to get it. The birds are so wonderful on individual cards and the bird holding the ornament is so sweet. Great coloring too.
ReplyDeleteTwo more lovely Christmas cards with these sweet birds. You have displayed them beautifully on different backgrounds. Love the sweet bird holding the Christmas ornament. TFS
ReplyDeleteBut these cards are beautiful, Bonnie!! I know those birds on the branch very well, but they made a whole before. I must admit that dividing them into two cards is equally impressive. I love both designs :-)

Beautiful birds - wonderful use of hot foil! I especially love the one holding the ornament! Great layers of texture withe the pinpoint die (at first I thought you'd pierced it!) and the dry embossing.
ReplyDeleteOMG..Bonnie...both your beautiful die cut birds on branches are so elegant and beautifully framed. Your Christmas cards will be treasured, my friend. TFS and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Love and Hugs...Nancy
ReplyDeleteThey are both absolutely beautiful xx
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely, Bonnie. The bird checking out the ornament is just precious. I love the embossed pin background and the embossed frame.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are SOOOOOO pretty Bonnie and so elegant...LOVE them both and you gotta love it when you can get so much mileage out of one stamp set!! YAY for you!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards, Bonnie! LOVE your pretty birds on branches ... so perfect for the holidays with the foiled framing and embossed backgrounds. Lovely cards! xx
ReplyDeleteWhat elegant Christmas cards Bonnie! I love the birds, they are so pretty. The branch they are on is pretty too and grounds them nicely. I love the embossing and piercing on the cards, makes such a statement while keeping that clean white space. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteThere are GORGEOUS, Bonnie! Love the look of the foiling. Until I read the description I thought you fussy cut those skinny branches then saw it was a die cut. I need to foil some of my stamps too since these look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWonderfully elegant and ever so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a beautiful foiling set, and so versatile. I love the elegant image and so perfect for Christmas ♥
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards Bonnie - love the bird holding the ornament - that is so precious.
ReplyDeleteBlessings

I love your bird cards Bonnie - especially the first bird - he/she has so much personality!
ReplyDeleteI have 5 bird feeders and 1 squirrel feeder in my back yard. I can see them all from my craft room window. so much fun watching all the activity.
Happy Thanksgiving Bonnie!

Yes, you have gotten a lot of mileage out of these birds and I've been enjoying every minute of it. Such pretty components you used to bring these lovely Christmas cards together!
ReplyDeleteTwo really gorgeous birds and cards! Wow -- so much to look at, and great shine too
ReplyDeleteOh wow! What a fabulous way to use these stamps! Gorgeous cards! You've inspired me to use them for Christmas!
ReplyDeletePretty birds on branches, Bonnie - just love the soft grey against the crisp white backgrounds!!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done on both cards.
ReplyDeleteBoth beautiful. Fabulous colours. Gotta love it when you can stretch your supplies.
ReplyDeleteWow, these cards are gorgeous, Bonnie! I love the foiled and die-cut birds and branches! The debossed and embossed background (first card), and the framing (second card) are elegant and wonderful!
