One Bird Two Ways

 

Hello! I have two birdie cards to share today. The first card uses the Woodware Jane Gill linocut bird and holly stamp, but with all the elements inked individually.

I did a little fussy cutting around two edges and added a little Christmas sparkle and embellishment.

{Today's Brew: Woodware Jane Gill stamps, Kraft card stock, SU red twinkle paper, SU gold ribbon and wax seal embellishment, Distress Oxide inks, Red Stickles}

For the next card, I kept things simple.

Just stamped in Festive Berries ink, cut out with a stitched frame die, and a little extra banner over the sentiment. It has the look of an old bookplate, don't you think?

This card will be much easier for mailing. The first card went in a package today, so the extra bulk didn't require extra postage.

You know you are dealing with a British stamp maker when they say "Happy Christmas" instead of "Merry Christmas!" 

Happy Christmas. I like that! We can use more happy this Christmas, don't you think?

Blessings, café friends!
