MM #137 and ATS&M #124

I've been waiting for a couple of stamp orders so I can make more Christmas cards and they arrived the middle of the week.   I had yesterday afternoon to spend in my craftroom and got a few cards made.  First up is a card for Merry Monday - Feathered Friends and Addicted to Stamps and More - CAS


Stamps from Avery Elle (bird and trees) and Penny Black (sentiment) are on Neenah Solar White cardstock.  The trees are in SSS Smoke which is the color of the card base.  The little bird was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Bic Markers.  I added a strip of red scrap on the side.

Thanks for stopping by and stayed tuned to see what other NBUS goodies I got.

Love your red bird - and the little strip of red cardstock along the side of the panel is inspired. Great design, Bobby!

This is such an awesome card! Love this layout with the bit of red! And the trees, bird and sentiment are so festive! (A funny. Last class I had a card with the white off center like this and several asked me if I knew it wasn't in the middle.)

Bobby, I LOVE this!! What a fabulous stamp set!! Your little cardinal is adorable - and the extra red along the side is the perfect touch. WOW!

It seems like forever since I've been by. I do hope that all is well with you and your parents.
