Decorating this sweet tree was a snap using washi tape! Then that delightful cardinal came along and offered to add the tinsel - an offer I couldn't refuse! We will be getting our own Christmas tree this week...........now if I could just get another cardinal or two to help me with the tinsel.......
I adore this sketch by Cindy Lovell this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Hope you play along!
Merry Monday's Christmas challenge this week is to use a bird - or two - on your holiday card.
This is adorable...and anyone who uses SU's silver or gold baker's twine KNOWS about tinsel...."embrace the fray", in other words! GREAT way to use it! I could use a couple of those birds myself!
ReplyDeletethis is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteLove this, Linda! What a super-sweet image!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I love the little cardinal with the tinsel. He adds the perfect touch!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever card! Love the patchwork design with the random decorations. The bird is adorable!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the sweet striped washi tree. Beautiful, Linda!
ReplyDeleteLinda this is fantastic! love the angle of the washi tapes, the star in middle.. and look at the light peeking out of the bottom...but the cardinal wth the tinsel is the cutest ever! hugs.
ReplyDeleteOh, Linda, you always add the most fun touches to your cards! The tiny bit of tinsel was perfect. We made some Washi Trees at a class last night, so fun! I have a lot of cardinals here…want me to send some your way? :)
ReplyDeletePrecious, Linda! Love that tinsel in the beak.
ReplyDeleteLove your modern take on a Christmas tree - a washi tape tree is so cool! And the bird with tinsel is such a cute and perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteOh, at first I didn't see that the cardinal was helping to decorate the beautiful tree. Didn't that happen in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer too? And washi tape on a tree is an idea I can definitely wrap my head around.
ReplyDeleteWashi tape!! ingenious!! and your little bird helper is adorable : )
