It's time to break things up a bit with a Christmas/Winter card. I'm playing along with the Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge #114.
This card is a bit more traditional than my usual cards, but it was fun to do. I love cardinals, which we don't ever see on the west coast. I love seeing them when I visit my brother in West Virginia. I've had this old Stampendous rubber stamp for a very long time - I think I might have used it once in all these years. I stamped it with black ink on white card stock and then colored it with Copic markers. I trimmed it to a square panel to attach to a 5-1/2" square card base that was already sitting on my desk. Before matting it with red and attaching to the card base, I gold heat-embossed the sentiment and edge. After all of this, I wish I hadn't added the blue circle behind.
