Christmas Cardinal

Hello Everyone,
December already!!  This year has just flown by!!  And, it is Christmas card time again.  I have mine all finished.  Now, I have to sit down, address, and write in them. 
Today, I have a card I made with a holiday 3-D sticker.  Take a look.

The glittery gold strip is washi tap.  And I added some gold pearls. The color scheme is not a traditional Christmas color scheme, but I like the results. 

On this card, a foil striped paper was used to showcase the Tree sticker.  I added some metallic green brads and rhinestones.

See you next time for a few more Christmas cards.
