Punch Art Cardinal Card Using the Bird Builder Punch

My technique for November was this cute cardinal punch art Christmas card.  I've seen these cardinals before, so I just had to try one.  Also, I've been wanting to design something for my Old Olive bow clips which are actually called Old Olive Simply Styled Embellishments...wow, that's a mouth full, isn't it!

Stamps:

• Christmas Messages
• Woodgrain

Colors:

• Crumb Cake
• Cherry Cobbler
• Black StazOn for greeting
• Basic Black for beak & sponging
• Old Olive
• Whisper White

Tools / Supplies

•  Old Olive Simply Styled Embellishments (the bow clip)
• Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack
• Bird Builder Punch
• Dimensionals

Here's the page we did for our Technique Journal.  I actually have two journals since I have one just for Punch Art.  So, this page is in my Punch Art book.

I made a blue and white version of this card with a peace dove instead of a cardinal for a lunch time card class.  Here's that one:

When you love a layout, use it again!  It can look like a whole new card when you change the colors, greetings, and embellishments.

Happy Stampin'
