Christmas Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik Crimson Holly

Hello friends.  I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving; for those of you who celebrate the holiday.  It was in the 90's here in Southern CA on Thanksgiving Day.  Can you believe that?  

It is time once again for another fabulous Ching-Chou Kuik Monthly Challenge and my Inspiration Post.  Our topic this month is Birds.  I hope we see your fabulous creations in our December Monthly Blog Challenge.  This one should be an easy one; with so many birds in the Ching-Chou Kuik digis.

I created this card using Ching Chou Kuik "Crimson Holly".  I used several retired CTMH products for this card; but I love them even after they are discontinued.
