Challenge Title: Put A Bird On It!!
Hostess: UnderstandBlue (Lydia)
Keyword: FF22UNDERSTANDBLUEA
Date: 11/28/2022

Welcome to Falliday Fest!! We are excited about this annual tradition - bringing you holiday inspired ideas and tutorials for your creative self!

To me, there's nothing that says holiday like a bird - doves, cardinals, little fluffy wrens and sparrows. So my challenge to you is to make a holiday card with a BIRD ON IT. I chose a cardinal, and I have a fun video on this for you as well.

Thank you for the challenge, Lydia. Here's my card. What fun to get an old stamp set out and use it again! No sentiment yet as not sure if this will be for a needed Christmas birthday or Christmas card. Thank you for looking.
