Cardinal Christmas
July 23, 2010
So this card really did start out for a CAS challenge (cas76), but I just don’t think this qualifies for CAS any more. What it does qualify for is the DTGD challenge – red, yellow, green.
I love cardinals. There are cardinals here in Hawaii (not something I thought I would see), but they aren’t the all red ones I’m used to in Virginia. They have a read head and black & white body – very striking (see – not my photo).
Merry Christmas
Stamps: Cardinal (Rubber Stampede); Lovely as a Tree, Holiday Sampler – star, Christmas Greetings (SU);

Very nice, Karen! The woodgrain window frame looks amazing, and those trees outside look real! Great job! P.S. This would also qualify for *my* challenge–hint, hint . . .

this is just gorgeous! I love the “window” you made, and that pretty red cardinal.

Oh, this is gorgeous! I miss the red cardinals we had in IA & NE, but the one you have there is really beautiful too! TFS!!!
