    Beautiful! A cardinal is a representative of a loved one who has passed. When you see one, it means they are visiting you. They usually show up when you most need them or miss them. They also make an appearance during times of celebration to let you know they will always be with you.

    So pretty! I love your cardinals- and always so fun to see the image in two different ways. The die is so pretty! You have lots of B-days in Jan : ) We have a family of cardinals living in an evergreen tree in the backyard. I just love watching them at the bird feeders.

    Happy New year, my friend! I hope the holidays were wonderful and the new year brings many blessings ♥ Your cards are both lovely, as always -- but there is something magical about spotting a red cardinal that just makes us stop and stare with wonder. I sat and watched a woodpecker on my walk the other day - fascinating :) Hugs!

    I would love to see these birds for real. They always catch my eye and imagination!. The plaid works perfectly with your second focal image.
