Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
When I saw the Jingle Belles challenge to add a sticker, I thought that
would keep me from entering. Then I remembered these cardinal stickers that I
bought last year and never used any.
I had embossed this snowflake for another project and it had a wrinkle on the
bottom. But it was below the snowflake so I added a frame to hide the wrinkle and
added the bird sticker perched on a die cut Merry.
Quick and simple. Just the way I like it.
Challenges:
ABC Christmas - A for Anything Goes Christmas
Can You Handle the Pressure - Anything using an embossing folder/Twist of a border.
Jingle Belles - Stuck on You
Peace on Earth Christmas - Inspired by the cardinal

Your sweet and thoughtful comments warm my heart!
I adore that cardinal sticker, and perfectly positioned perched on the 'Merry' prettily framed and love the embossed snowflake, and who would have know that the kraft card frame hides a wrinkle, and the finished card is beautiful Bonnie. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever way to save the embossed snowflake and LOVE the design! I’d never guess that cardinal was a sticker. He looks 3D! This is a fabulous CAS design!

The snowflake with the frame is lovely on its own Bonnie but that gorgeous cardinal really elevates it to something very special. Love this! Vicky x
ReplyDeleteLovely. The pop of red with kraft and white is a winner!
ReplyDeleteThankfully there's almost always a way to save something, and one would never guess your snowflake panel is a save. So beautiful! The cardinal is just about the prettiest sticker ever and looks just right on his perch by the sentiment. One more for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful Christmas card, Bonnie. Love how you saved the dry EB snowflake background with a frame and found your beautiful old bird sticker. The perfect card for the challenges. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful!
ReplyDeletethe cardinal sticker is a beauty and perfectly place on your embossed snowflake ♥ Love the EF :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Bonnie! The cardinal is so pretty, perching on the sentiment. I thought you colored the bird. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the big snowflake and the Kraft die-cut sentiment, matching the frame. Clever way to hide the wrinkle of the embossed panel. I would have never guessed!
