I hope you're going to come play in our challenge this month. You have until the 25th of the month to link up your entries. We love being inspired by you but the team probably won't be commenting this month because we give them time off so they can get ready for their own holiday celebrations. Merry Christmas to all.

NanaConnie I don't know how you make all the wonderful cards that you do! You must never sleep! I love birds, especially cardinals ~ they always look so regal in the trees and in the middle of winter they look neon red! Your card is beautiful!
