Cardinal Christmas card

I have this Inkadinkado stamp that I bought for a dollar. It is so easy to color with my Copic markers on Kryogen paper by Stamping and Scrapping. The felt ribbon is from Oriental Trading Co. Sometimes you can find good buys from their catalogs. The flower is an oldie from Prima, The green patterned paper is by Die Cuts with a View. Th red on the bottom is by My Mind's Eye. I dry embossed the red with an embossing folder by The Paper Studio (AKA Hobby Lobby). 
I used a rectangle Spellbinders die to cut and emboss the focal image. The sentiment is a rub-on by American Crafts. The brad in the center of the flower is also by Stamping and Scrapping.
Last final details to this card, the decorative edge of red paper has been border punched by Martha Stewart. The other thing is the fuzzy pine cones in the stamped image are now sparkly since I added Rangers Stickles to them. Thanks for looking.
