In my recent splurge on sale items I acquired this die set from Crafters Companion called Rays of Light. Then I saw a card example by Natasha Foote showing what she called a stepped up version of white on white and it triggered an idea. This is what I came up with. The Poinsettia is another new die by Waffle Flower, the word die is from Scrapbook.com and the tiny bird in the O is from Poppy Stamps.
I cut all the pieces and slowly assembled them by paper piecing the fallout layers back into the frame. Then the stitched die cuts were backed with foam tape and added on top. After attaching the Poinsettia I carefully added the word at the bottom. To make this fit into the challenge over at ABC Christmas I added the tiny bird. Initially I cut him in silver but it disappeared so I added a white layer on top. I’m quite pleased with how this turned out and because I am giving it to the recipient I didn’t have to consider size, weight or postage. The recipient loves the cards I make and apparently keeps them for posterity.
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate you, your time and any comments you leave for me.
ABC Christmas Challenge – W & X are for? Wings – tiny bird, X is for stitching.

Very elegant. I really like the holographic silver. The rays of light die makes a great background for many occasions.

Love the white on white rays with the holographic flower. I am a fan of any JOY word dies and I almost missed the little white bird. Awesome card.
