I made this card for today's Inspiration Challenge - to be inspired by the beautiful porcelain pieces on the Precious Possessions website. I chose this chicadee dish for my inspiration: http://stores.preciouspossessions.com/Detail.bok?no=489
I made a Christmas card with a popped up frame that could hold a photo. I couldn't decide on a photo so I stamped a sentiment for today - I'll add the photo later. I used a DP with holly and berries like the dish. I stamped the chicadee onto Naturals White with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored him with Copic markers. Popped up the bird and added some punched branches. A triple loop bow and some adhesive pearls finished my card.
Thanks, Anne, for the great inspiration site, and TFL!

Carla, this is a fantastic holiday card! Love your colors and the elegant look you achieved with the bird, the pearls and the pretty bow! What a clever idea to cluster your punched branches together for your bird to perch on! LOVE it! Now you're all set to add a photo and send it off later...or you can leave it as is with the simple sentiment!
Thanks so much for playing along with Just Us Girls again this week! So glad to have you and see your beautiful project. I'll send your digi set as soon as I submit this comment :O) Hope to see you back next Saturday for a fab sketch challenge hosted by our sweet Maria!
