I struggles with an idea for the Christmas ATC Swap on AMR too. In the end, time was ticking away. I decided to re-work the Christmas card I made for my co-workers. Melonscraps said that was cheating. I replied that I was just using my own "sketch".
This time around I was able to use Nestabilities Nesting Birds die which made cutting out the birds much easier. (I hand cut them last year) Once I got the sandwich right, they cut though the felt "like bud-dah". These little guys have brads for eyes and feather wings. After attaching the wings and tails last year I swore I'd never work with feathers again and though them away. While I did remember I'd have to buy more feathers, I had completely blocked out the mess a bag of feathers created. Seconds after I opened this bag, it all came back to me. I didn't have to deal with the tails feather this time because these guys are just too little.

He is sitting on a MM Flocked Holly circle, pop-dotted on a Bazzill Mud Pie scalloped circle. I rounded two of the corners of Cosmo Cricket's Merry & Bright. The knotted ribbon is a dull grosgrain from the dollar bin at Michaels and its all mounted on Bazzill Ivy.
