Kirsty is setting our challenge at Daring Cardmakers this week and she'd like to see all things weather-related.
I'm hoping I’ve gone for something unseasonal as I’ve chosen snow! I know it’s been unseasonably mild just recently and I hope we’re not going to pay for it with the sort of weather we had with the “beast from the east” a few years back. That was late February…My stash of Christmas cards was almost nonexistent for 2023 so I’m determined to try to make a few more throughout the year this year. With that in mind I’m also joining Jo’s Christmas Kickstart where Gail is this month’s elf and the theme is “out on a limb” — things you’d find on a tree. My little birdie is literally out on a limb. She has a coating of Spica glitter pen for subtle sparkle too.
Stamps:
Merriest Christmas Wishes (Hero Arts)
Paper:
Bristol board
Ink:
Memento Luxe by Tsukineko (Bahama Blue, Love Letter)
Other:
Copic marker
Spic glitter pen (red)
Snowflake die (Waltzingmouse Stamps, no longer with us)
Thanks for stopping by!
Sweet cardinal in the birch trees, Joanne & I love your snowy background!!
ReplyDeleteLove that blue background and the contrast with the red bird is just stunning xx
ReplyDeleteNice card!
ReplyDeleteI like the colors and pop of red with the bird and that she sparkles! :D And the thin red border.
I think it is wise to make Christmas cards all year.
hugs Margot
This is lovely, Joanne! Just a perfect way to play our challenge at Christmas Kickstart. We're both so glad to see you in the gallery, Jo x
