Christmas Cardinal Card

Hello, again!   I don’t often post two times in a day, but it is the end of the month and I am trying to get in my card challenges!


I love this cardinal image from Elizabeth Crafts so much and was able to color this up quickly last night.  I used random papers from my Christmas pads.  They have gotten quite mixed up, I noticed. I need to do an overall craft desk cleaning, so add that to the list!  

I would love to enter:
