Cathy is our WTUI hostess with a "tweet" challenge for us HERE
I used DOX inks ( twisted citrus, does that sounds right??? and tumbled glass, and then it picked up something pink/purple from my craft mat) to create a WFD background. To add a bit more interest I decided to emboss it, and highlighted the embossing with drive metallic rub-on. I cut the die once from watercolor paper and coloured with Inktense pencils, adding Glossy Accents to the berries and SN clear glitter pen to the bells. I used two layers of cereal box to add dimension, and finished it off with Noel cut from copper card. And a few sequins...

Your textured background has a wonderful vintage look to it, Sabrina. I love that watercolored wreath along with the little birds and silver bells! What a delightful Christmas card...thanks so much for your beautiful sample!

I love the bg, and that wreath and bird are icing on the cake of this beauty, Sabrina.

Blue Birds - I luv them! My cat gets so excited when they come to our feeder, which sits just two feet in front of the picture window. Pretty embossed background.

My eyes went to the embossed background immediately. Love the tin tile look and the way you highlighted the raised areas. This is a beautiful card! We don't see blue birds around where I live but they are in the rural areas north of me. Love them and your card!
