This week for the challenge over at
i {heart} card sketches w/ a tWiSt #128, I chose to use both the sketch and the twist. The twist is to use your favorite color. This time of the year, my favorite color is red.
The image is called
Cardinal and Winterberry. I added some Stampendous Chunky White embossing powder to the snow and Distress Inks around the circle. The paper comes from A Very Merry Christmas from The Paper Studio. The sentiment is die cut from Maya Road.

Jean, this is gorgeous! I love your beautiful coloring and the wonderful texture the "snow" adds. Thanks for joining us this week at From the Heart Stamps i {heart} sketches challenge!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Brenda. I really liked this sketch and may use it in the future again.....if I remember LOL!
DeleteHello Jean - I just bought this stamp myself and look forward to coloring it up. I love how you used the ribbon added layers and the dimension of the snow. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Sketch #128. Best to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kathy. This is my first card using this image. I loved coloring it. I know you will enjoy working with it too.
DeleteGreat take on the sketch...I love how you have added ribbon to the panels! I also love the "snow" texture you have added to the image. Thank you for playing along with us at From the Heart Stamps!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angela. When I first cut out the three panels, I didn't know what to do with them. Isn't it wonderful when inspiration finally hits and you know just what to add? I bought that "snow" last year and was happy to find something perfect this year to use it on :)
DeleteBack East cardinals were popular in the winter season, and this reminds me of my mother...she loved cardinals. Very pretty and colorful card.
ReplyDeleteMy mom also loved cardinals, Sue. My favorite were the blue jays.
DeleteBeautiful Card! Love the DP & the lovely cardinal :)
