Plaid Christmas Wishes

 

Happy Wednesday Peeps!!

Today I have another Toile Christmas card to share made with the gorgeous Cardinal! 

The Paper Players 

has a great challenge this week and fit right in with what I had in mind with this card:

 

I combined the Cardinal and branch stamps from the Toile Christmas set with some

die cuts from the Beautiful Boughs Dies.

 

I stamped the  Cardinal and Branch with Black Memento ink and colored with my Blends.

I used Real Red and Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight to color.

I used the Matching dies to the Toile Christmas set to die cut out the cardinal and branch.

I did end up fussy cutting away most of the small vanilla edge around the cardinal hat the die leaves

just because I thought in my arrangement it looked better with out i. 

I die cut my pine sprigs using Shaded Spruce and the Pine cones using Early Espresso card stock

 and Gold Foil.

I die cut the piece for my Cardinal and greenery arrangement to sit upon using a die from

the Stitched Nested Labels dies with Gold Foil paper.

I laid down most of the greenery pieces and pinecones first then tucking my cardinal in last.

The cardinal is added with dimensionals and the top pinecone is on dimensionals too.

The base of my card is Cherry Cobbler cardstock.

I used a layer of Gold Foil and the DSP is from the Wrapped in Plaid 6 x 6 pack.

I stamped the sentiment with Versamark on Cherry Cobbler  card stock and embossed with

white embossing powder.

I added the sentiment at the top of my busy card with dimensionals and glue dots.

 

I pulled a few pieces of wine from a piece of Burlap ribbon o make my bow for the top of the pinecones.

Listed below are all the "ingredients" used to make this card.
