I didn't want to copy everything piece by piece, so changed the colors and used a fun set by Claire Brennan called Festive Foliage instead of the poinsettias. I mass produced this one and made 20 cards. It was quite an undertaking since the Festive Foliage set doesn't come with dies. I ended up with 140 pieces that had to be fussy cut. I'm very pleased with the outcome. If I could change anything, I might gold emboss the music instead of the ink I used. What do you think?
Thanks so much for coming by to look.

You Fussy cut 140 pieces! WOW! I love it even more now! What an undertaking! They are fabulous Sharyn!
ReplyDeleteI think your hand should be hurting, that's what I think. Good for you making so many great cards already. Everyday I think I will get started and so far, other than I class I took, I haven't done a thing. I need to get Thanksgiving at the cabin over first. I have so many things running through my mind right now for it that I can't move on. I'm so happpy you are getting stamping time in. Have a wonderful holiday. I like the brown ink for the music because it ties in with the pine cones. Great job.
ReplyDeleteOh my word!!!! I cannot believe you fussy cut all that!!!! These are gorgeous - LOVE that bird. I have had my eye on that set for awhile. And you are farther along with your cards than me. I am still trying to get my cards done for the rest of the year for JUGS so I don't have to think about it. I LOVE this design....well done, my dear!!!
ReplyDeleteI am with Nancy! I love this card, but when I read that you fussy cut all of that....well, they are so much more precious now. I hope that Gina makes a cut file for you and then that Santa brings you a Cameo.
ReplyDeleteOh My Word! First of all these are gorgeous! I love the greenery and that fantastic Red Cardinal! And if I had a gold star (which I probably do in my stash somewhere) I would award it to you for all of the fussy cutting!!! You go girl!!!
