This is a chirping beautiful card. Love, love the richness of the red combination paper, embossing and birds ... the pearls just set it off - the perfect card to display all through the holidays!
This is beautiful. I have a soft spot for Cardinals. My Dad passed away this summer and his ball team was st. Louis Cardinals. They were also my Grandmother's favorite bird. They bring back a lot of great memories when I see them.

Love the cardinal card. The red really makes the image "pop". Beautiful examples of how to use this set.
Wow - those are both beautiful. I like the different uses of beads, too. I always have a soft spot for cardinals - we don't have them here, and when I was little I was always fascinated by them on cards we would get from Canada.
Very nice, love the red cardinal shaker card, all of the red.
I love the way you made an opening on the front of the card. Very dramatic.
Beautiful cards! Love the red and the shaker with beads! Thanks for sharing!
Love both cards. I love birds and have cardinals and doves daily at our bird feeders. Alice G
Hi Chris~
I love cardinals and this shaker card is beautiful. I love the flourishes and the wonderful coloring is just perfect. I love the pine cones in the image.
Your Turtle Doves card is so elegant. It reminds me of cloissine (spelling?) jewelry. The same colors and so many embellishments on this card. It is really over the top. How festive!
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Chris!
He IS Able!
