Partridge in a Pear Tree

Welcome to Day 18 of my 25 days of Christmas Inspiration series. 

Today's card is also for the Encouragement Squad Challenge.

It's time for another encouragement challenge at Calling All Sistahs

Congratulations to the winner from last month.  Our challenge is to use the inspiration photo below to create a card to send someone a word of encouragement as they go through a struggle. It doesn't have to be cancer it can be for someone who has lost someone, lost a job, or just needs a word of encouragement. The real challenge is will you mail it? I love to go to the mailbox and find happy mail instead of or with the bills, always makes my heart happy. oh and  There is a prize involved as well, a $25 voucher to CAS-ual Fridays Stamps and if you use CAS-ual Fridays products and are the winner it will increase to $50

here is the inspiration photo

To me this photo has Christmas all over it so I made an encouraging Christmas card. To make this card I started with a top folding white card base, a black panel and a white panel cut down with a stitched die, I stamped the image from the Partridge in a Pear Tree and colored it using Copic markers. added the greeting and the adhered it to the black panel and attached it to the card base.
