oh happy day, I mean bird! So cute and festive on the snowy log! I love making Christmas cards with foliage, greenery and brown elements.
The Happy Dance Bird and Merry Christmas Stylish Script dies are from the newest Memory Box release. I die cut the bird in white and inked in some blue oxides and then a little gathered twigs too.
The background panel I embossed with the Pinecone and Berries 3D embossing folder in white cardstock. The colors really pop against embossed white!
I used a bunch of other dies but you could easy use whatever you have. This birdie could stand on about anything! Maybe even be a tree topper! lol
Notice the little dots of white on the berries…it’s the new White Contour tube that Cindy from Starlitstudio sent me to try! WOW! It’s the best white of any so far and there’s sure been a lot. It makes the best dots down to this teeny tiny easy! I’m so impressed! I’m getting the gold next. hehe
I took a bunch of pictures, posting several because the lighting shows some things better.
The Snowy Log is one of my favorite accessory type dies and so easy to make up too! The wood grain happens when you die cut it! No extra step to achieve it! yay!
Pine Branches and Pinecone Duo dies for the pine elements.
Festive Holly for the greenery elements.
So cute! This bird has personality and sure to bring a smile to the receiver!
The white panel is A2 size but I wanted some of the card base to show so it’s going to need an A6 or A7 envelope to mail. It shouldn’t need any extra postage.
I’m going to link my card to some challenge blogs…

Gosh, I love this so much! My favorite bird in a long time and I don’t know if I’ll get to it this year, but I’ll try. It’s good for other seasons, too. So dang cute all over, Pam! Love the log and the greenery. It’s been a while since I indulged on a lot of Memory Box, sigh. Every inch of this card is utterly fantastic!
