My inspiration was the color combo of red and green along with images from the animal kingdom. No frogs, but I did go for cute! A sweet friend gave me Lawn Fawn's Winter Sparrows stamp set & matching dies a long time ago. I'm not much for coloring, but these are little and not so intimidating. I covered them with glaze and glitter on the wings. The vellum circle worked great to make them stand out from the embossed background. Great to have another Christmas card ready to go. I'm looking forward to seeing the variety of cards in our gallery and hope you'll join in.
Edited to Add: I'm entering Christmas Kickstart and SSS Wednesday.
Love the way you were inspired -it didn't occur to me that the main colors of the photo (green and red) are of course Christmas colors! Very fun and clever. The embossing folder you used is very pretty too. xx
ReplyDeleteLove the alternate take on the photo inspiration, rather than the literal.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card using those darling little sparrows. Love this!
ReplyDeleteDarling birdies, Greta - you should add to Christmas Kickstart if you see this in time (ends today).

ReplyDeleteSo lovely Greta, love you added the birds to vellum to make them stand out. I've had to go back a while since I visited, blame Bloglovin. I saw a comment from you on another blog and had to come and say Hello. x
