This is the first card I did for Irene today. I'm still not sure I'm happy w/ it. Using our bird book, I tried to color this like the Goldfinch that live around here. Last summer one even layed a single egg on our deck railing. Anyway, my card is based, Winter Wonderland, seen here: CAS105 Winter Wonderland by DandI93 at Splitcoaststampers
My base card is Real Red that I embossed w/ this fancy frame, the bird is MS & is cut w/ Creative Memories oval cutter. It is colored w/ WC crayons & blender pen.
Once again, congratulations Irene. I hope you like my version of your card.
Thanks for stopping by to take a look.

This is gorgeous. Love that goldfinch. Like you, I love to watch all the beautiful birds in our back yard. It is fun to see who drops by for a visit-and then the same humming birds come back each year. Your embossed frame looks awesome on this card.

Framed beautifully. I love golden finches and can they put away some thistle. Love it, Karen.
