Christmas birds at Christmas card club

Good morning all! How are you? I hope you are well. I am good and have a bumper bundle of cards to share with you today - they're all on the theme 'Christmas Birds'.... I had problems deciding what to do for this theme - then I remembered the crazy birds - and I went a bit crazy myself making 6 cards to use each bird!! Lol!

In all cases I used stencils and masking to create the background....


I die cut and stamped the birds and the additional bits.....


coloured them in then put them together! What a way to spend a Thursday.

I hope you have a great Sunday - we're off to the Harvest service at Church and then lunch at my mums. Then I have to try and create something for coffeepot tomorrow!!! I wonder what we'll do!

Big hugs

Rachel x

    A delightful and splendid way to use these Tim Holtz CB images. Each one made me grin at the goofy looks and the festive dress the bird is sporting. Those backgrounds are wonderful. Hope that you, your Mom and the girls will have a pleasant & relaxing Sunday. TFS & Hugs
