How are you doing on your Christmas cards?  I still have a little ways to go but I'm getting closer.  Here's one I am making on repeat.

It is easy to make and I do like the simplicity of it.

• Thick Basic White CS 4-1/4" x 11".
• Basic White CS 4" x 5-1/4"  embossed using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing folder.
• Pool Party ink applied using a Blending Brush.
• Birds and branch from the Nests of Winter DSP cut using the Winterly Tree Tops dies.
• Shaded Spruce CS cut using the Painted Lavender dies.  Trim down the sprigs to fit around the birds.
• Cherry Cobbler CS banner cut using the Hearts & Hugs dies.  The die is much longer than I needed so I trimmed off one end.
• Sentiment from the Hang An Ornament stamp set  (on the Last Chance list) inked with Versamark and embossed in white.
• Cherry Cobbler embellishments from the Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive-Backed Berries (expected in stock 1/6).

One day I had some time in my craft room but was not feeling crafty so I decided to cut out the birds from the DSP.  I am so glad I did this, having all these birds ready to use makes it so easy to create with them.  

• Inside I added another Shaded Spruce sprig.
• A sentiment inked in Cherry Cobbler too.

Thank you for stopping by and wish me luck in getting all. my cards finished and written.  As I say ever year, I really need to get started earlier on my Christmas cards.  Maybe 2025 will be that year!
