Our featured stamper is Nancy who has a lovely gallery full of rich, detailed, often vintage looking cards. I was inspired by her bird framed with embossing on this card: Cardinal Greetings by nwilliams6 at Splitcoaststampers
I changed the bird and the frame and went a little less vintage with my white background. I also decided to put my main sentiment on the inside of the card rather than the front.
Thanks for the inspiration, Nancy!
After embossing the frame, I stamped, and colored with copics - can't get much simpler than that! Added glitter glue to the berries which adds a lovely sparkle. I decided to put my main sentiment on the inside of the card.

What a pretty card! Your beautifully coloured bird and holly look great against the white background and the embossed frame is the perfect finishing touch. And the holly branch definitely qualifies as a tree! Thanks for joining us for tic-tac-toe over at The Paper Players this week!
