Just for Christmas FUN!!!

I bought the birdcage….

I think it will be a gift topper….

or maybe hang it on the Christmas tree….

or sell it!  I’m such a hoarder! lol *sigh* or as Jay Jay would type *cough*! lol   (ETA – the poinsettia looks too big for the birdcage here but it really isn’t IRL… I suppose it’s because the cage is leaning back to be photographed.

Tim Holtz birdcage die HERE, painted with Antique Linen crackle paint

Marianne Design Creatables poinsettia & pine branch dies (US and the Netherlands)

Ash Branch punch (purchased and shipped from the UK)
