Was going to comment on your so beautiful white & blue reindeer card, but then I spied these cardinals & of course had to come get a closer look. Your coloring over the embossed shapes of the EF added so much beauty & depth to the look of just the embossing. I expect it was tedious, as it's difficult to stay on the 'edges' (at least for me). You did it superbly, and I really, really Love this one. It looks fabulous placed with the other wonderful elements of your card. The coloring is so soft, it enhanced the embossing just great! Well worth your time in the final result! Loved the reindeer as well. TFS & Hugs
