Flamingo Christmas

I just love flamingo images, so this inspiration photo from Hand Stamped Sentiments inspired me to pull out my Newton's Nook Designs flamingo set--Festive Flamingos. I used a newly acquired flamingo embossing folder to create the background. The layers were created using the NND's Flags & Frames die set. The tag is a die from Paper Smooches --Tag Stitched dies. I added a twine bow, shimmery snowflakes, and some glitter for snow. One Christmas card down!

This card features a fun magician and bunny from The Alley Way's Ta Da (a new set I recently won from TAW--Thanks) and Now You See Me.  The paper is from My Mind's Eye--Adventure.  I'm thinking this would make a super fun b-day card for my grandson!  ~Debbie
