Happy Wednesday, peeps! My teammate Claire had a fun card on the Paper Players blog this week and I thought it was intriguing! It came from the Sunday Stamps challenge:
and I admit that I am still on a Christmas card kick--I know, I need to focus on something else, right?! Anyway, I still have several pieces of the Nests of Winter DSP, so I pulled some of that out and came up with this:
I cut a triangle from the lighter piece, then cut it in two pieces and mounted it on a piece of Lost Lagoon that I embossed with an embossing folder from Spellbinders called Mandela BLooms. I diecut the little birds from the DSP as well, and added a Cherry Cobbler scalloped edge behind them:
The little "peace" is from Impression Obsession, diecut with a Pink & Main banner die. Such pretty colors together and an interesting sketch!
The kids just got back from a week in Costa Rica!
They had a blast! Thanks so much for stopping by today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card, LeAnne! July is the perfect time to be in a Christmas card making mood! I'm being inspired by the Hallmark Christmas in July movies! LOL I love the sketch you used on this, very eye catching and those birds make for a lovely holiday card! Keep'em coming! Hope the kids had a great vacation!
ReplyDeleteThat embossing folder makes those sweet birds pop. Your color choices came together beautifully on this fun sketch.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! From the embossed background to the pops of red to the lovely birds - it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteFabulous, LeAnne! What a perfect spot for those birds - I love this paper so much, lol. Love that embossing background, too - so playful for the birds! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
