I used image Cardinal on Branch to create my card.
Christmas in July Card Recipe
There is something special about a Cardinal in Kentucky. Maybe because it is the mascot for the University of Louisville. Maybe it is because we are blessed to have an abundance of these beautiful creatures in our area. Regardless of the reason, I cannot pass up the opportunity to use one of these gorgeous red (my favorite color) birds on a card. I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to color this image. The sentiment is from an old stamp set by Hero Arts. It is a very simple card, but it highlights one of my favorite feathered friends.
