Christmas Cardinal

 
I love cardinals.
There's just something about them
that I am inexplicably drawn too.
 
 
In fact, if I see something with a cardinal on it
I am very hard pressed to pass it by.
 
 
So, when I saw this little Cardinal
cross-stitch picture I knew I needed to stitch it.
 
 
I am so pleased with how it turned out
and can't wait to display it for Christmas!

  1. I love birds in general. I find feathers amazing. On birds, of course :-) Cardinals are awesome, and your picture is great!

  3. I love the cardinal and chickadee.........I have plates with Cardinals on, hand painted by a local artist. I adore them. They hang on the wall, same with chickadees. I would love that cross stitch in my collection.

  4. Hi Alana,
    Your Cardinal cross-stitch is just beautiful!
    I love birds too and wish we had Cardinals here in Australia.
    When I see photos of these gorgeous red birds against snow I can't help feeling all Christmas-y,lol!
    They are special little creatures.
    Thanks for sharing at Heart & Home.
    Have a blessed week, my friend!

  6. Hi Alana,
    Your cross stitch is lovely.. especially the way the backing finishes the picture.
    I would find it hard to resist too.
    Have a good day
