This layout was so fun (probably my all time fave). I know I say that on all of Julee's Mojo Sketches but this was FUN!!! I'm so over the top happy with this card. All the elements just sort of fell together. I wanted to use my new snowflake dies on this card and was trying to decide what stamp set to use. I opened my stamp cupboard and Stampin Up's Always set was falling out at me. That's when it hit me. That bird would make a great christmas card. Not something I would have usually thought of for christmas but I think it worked. I've never stamped him in Real Red and he's so very striking!!! I used so left over Wild Wasabi cardstock that was just taking up space. The kraft layer was embossed with my snowflakes cuttlebug folder. I've really been using my cuttlebug alot more lately. It took me a while to REALLY love it. Now I do!!! The brad in the center of the snowflakes is from the current SU catalog. I added some brads to the corners too because I just love em. Jessica Rone is the queen of brads and I've been checking here cards alot lately. I just bought three packs of silver brads today so be prepared, their coming!!!
