As most of you know, I have a soft spot for all things bird related, so when I saw this little Mercury Glass ornament from West Elm I immediately put it on my wishlist. You can learn more about it here (a portion of the purchase price goes to support St. Jude's).
I used the idea of a bird on a holly swag for a jumping off point for the card I am showing today. Wouldn't a shiny silver bird look great on this card?
To make the holly garland, I used the Holly Sprig (B1416)...
...simply stamp the image in a graceful curve, making sure you overlap so that everything is connected. Then cut everything out and mount onto the card.
I stamped the E1410 Crystal Snowflake right below the garland - and it looks like an ornament suspended in air. A little sponging on the background and the addition of some Cherry Red Christmas Jewels brings the card to life!
Thanks for sharing this information with me. The article was extremely
informative and I look forward to reading more soon. Thanks again. Wond Video
