So I may have taken a little liberty with the color scheme for our challenge this week, but I HAD to add a pop of red on this card.. the berries HAD to be red, and then that yummy new red ribbon on pg 15 of the Holiday Catalog is to die for… I just HAD to add it.

I wasn't really sure where I was going with this card idea, but I started by stamping the branch in Old Olive onto the Typeset Designer Paper from Stampin' Up!.  I shaded it in lightly with a blender pen and then used the blender pen to also color the berries in Cherry Cobbler.

So, do you want to hear something funny?

When I saw the color combo for today's challenge.. I had to look at all my ink pads because I thought Marina Mist had retired!! LOL .. I have not used it in SO long that it had fallen right off my radar!  But, it seemed the perfect color for my little birdie!

Yes, I cut the birdie out after stamping him in Marina Mist on Very Vanilla cardstock, but with the amazing Stampin' Up! Paper Snips, it's realy not a chore to fussy-cut.

So, here is how I used the 3 colors in the sketch challenge:

Old Olive: branch stamp

Marina Mist: bird stamp

Soft Suede: Card base

Don't you think this sweet tag is just the perfect touch for this card?

I punched with the new Note Tag punch and Very Vanilla cardstock, and stamped it with Old Olive ink and "holiday cheer" from the Cheerful Tags stamp set (pg 5 Holiday Catlog) and the branch stamp from An Open Heart (pg119 annual catalog).

 I cut the Typeset paper piece to 3-3/4" x about 4-1/2" and layered it onto a piece of Very Vanilla, and layered that onto the folded Soft Suede folded card.

I added a strip of Washi Tape from the "All is Calm" selection (pg 22 Holiday catalog) and finished it off with some Venetian Crochet Trim (pg 206 annual catalog).
