What Christmas already?? It’s never too early to get a jump start on your Christmas cards.? I had?this sample of the New Final Press Textured Impressions folder laying on my table and decided I had to create a card with it, so here you go:
? 
I got my layout from the Mojo Monday challenge for this week.? It isn’t exactly like the sketch but I didn’t want to take away from the Cardinal so I left a few of the items off.? I embossed my Cardinal in Black and colored him in with markers, then I cut him out and popped him up onto the Whisper White Circle I created using the Circle Scissors.?
Recipe:
CS:? Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White
INKS:? Real Red, More Mustard, Always Artichoke, Close to Cocoa markers, Black craft and classic ink pads
SS:? Cardinal Christmas
Accessories:? Scallop Circle for Big Shot, Circle Scissors Plus, Final Press embossing folder, Big Shot, dimensionals
Happy Stamping!

Omigosh, Glenda! That little cardinal never looked so good! And the finial press background is absolutely beautiful with this card. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful idea, I got this set last year and was so thrilled that it made it into the big catty…I will definitely be case’ing this lovely card. Jan Hoyt
