Sweet Bird Christmas
by Trina Pham

Hello everyone.  I have another “tweet” Christmas card to share today, this time featuring the Sweet Bird die from the 2024 Winter Days collection.  
 
The bird layers were die cut from white cardstock, pine needles from Greenery paper and pinecones from Kraft.  Ink blended them with distress inks (DI) using blending brushes.

bird - Candied Apple, Black Soot 
pine needles - Rustic Wilderness, Black Soot  
pinecones - Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs

The background is white woodgrain paper covered with the Snowflake rub ons.  An oval cutout and frame were die cut from Bristol paper using Poppy Stamps Basic Ovals dies.  On the cutout, ink blended gray dye ink at the top, then stamped the sentiment in black using Archival Black ink.   Assembled the card onto a white card base and added snow details with a white Posca pen to finish.

This is such a sweet scene. The bird looks so real and he seems happy perched on the pine needles in the snow. You'd think they would be cold but those feathers are amazingly warm.

Absolutely gorgeous Trina, the bird colours are out of this world ♥

Such a pretty winter bird and a sweet nest for him to snuggle in! Love that background too!

Trina, this is such a beautiful card! I cannot resist a beautiful bird!
Congratulations on your win at FMS!

Beautiful! I love the colorful bird against the snowflake backdrop.
