I used the Texana Cardinal, but masked off the word "cardinal" from the stamp. The Holiday Spirit message is Texana too. I cut around the top of the head and also the tail before cutting him out with my circle die. (Does everyone know how to do that? If you need to see it just let me know!) :-) The leaves are also cut out & popped up, then coated with Glossy Accents for a little something extra - can't really tell in the photo, though.
I only colored the cardinal because I was playing along with the Play Date Cafe challenge, which is a color splash this week. A splash of maroon!
The sketch is Jen del Muro's FINAL SFYTT! *sniff*
Oh and speaking of The Play Date Cafe - I made the Fab Four last week! YAY!! So exciting!

Great card Libby - love the way you have used the dotted paper - both in colour and texture, and the stunning simplicity of the design of the feature panel.
