Season's Greetings

I love all the Tim Holtz crazy birds, cats, and dogs, and today I have a humorous Christmas card with one of those birds wearing the Santa hat backwards! The eyes are looking up, so I put something on her head that was a bit odd, and the santa hat from the crazy bird accessories seemed to fit the bill perfectly! LOL I added some lawn fawn die cut stitched snowflakes along with a punched snowflake on the hat. I added some silver stickles to the centers, and some liquid applique to the snow on the Santa hat. The sentiment is by Northwoods.

I'm sharing this over at the Jingle Belles Christmas challenge which is to use mostly red as the main color on your card.

I'm also sharing it over at the Tuesday Throwdown #307 which is "anything goes."

Thanks for stopping by and make it a fun Tuesday :)

Hope it cooled you off making this winter creation. I think my sweat glads are worn out! It is fun dressing this little critters. I Like the way you used the red, Carol. Quite comical.

Merry Christmas! It could snow any minute in here I'm sure of it (it's definitely cold enough). I love how that bird seems a bit unsure of that hat.

Great card. I can't make up my mind if he is Santa or Scrooge with that expression on his face. LOL Have a wonderful day.
