Today I'm so excited to be joining in with Taheerah's Advent Calendar Extravaganza! This annual celebration is just amazing with so many cards to inspire us all. Taheerah brings together a huge number of people in the cardmaking world, including lots of awesome sponsors to make a fun journey through to Christmas.
Advent Calendar Extravaganza is -the- festive event of the season! This ‘hop with a twist’ was dreamed up by Taheerah Atchia and features surprise destinations each day! Joining in the fun with Taheerah are ONE HUNDRED special guests - each serving up some fantastic Christmas inspiration! Just like an Advent Calendar, you’ll never know where you’re going to be visiting next until you ‘open the door’!
And that’s not all! With 25 *amazing* sponsors taking part as guests as well, your crafty wish list is bound to get a boost with a chance to win a prize EVERY SINGLE DAY!!
Join in the fun every day at taheerah-atchia.com to see what special surprises await behind the door!
Today's sponsor is Lawn Fawn and I decided that I needed some new Lawn Fawn Christmas goodness (not that I need an excuse for new stamping goodies). I went searching for those cute Christmas penguins but they were very, very elusive (sold out everywhere) and so I went back to my wishlist and discovered that these gorgeous little Winter Sparrows were back in stock (you would not believe the number of times I've tried to buy these cuties). Yay! I think you'll be able to tell that I've had fun making these cards. This year is going to be all about singing sparrows as I send out my (very late) Christmas cards.
Patterned paper is Stampin' Up!
Don’t forget Advent Calendar Extravaganza runs from 1st-25th December inclusive so make sure you visit taheerah-atchia.com every day for fabulous inspiration and amazing prizes every single time!
Merry Christmas!

Beautiful cards! Thank You for the inspiration.
Super adorable sparrows on all of these cards! I love to color but it's hard to find the time on mass producing holiday cards, but these are perfect!
those birds are so tweet!
What a great idea to make the birds white and just put in the pops of color in the accessories! It looks particularly nice with matting cardstocks you chose. And I actually gasped a little at the snowflake/music paper. Where did you get that?? And everyone beware, because I'm going to go and buy up the entire stock of it. Thanks for sharing your creativity, and I hope you get your penguins soon!
Your cards are adorable! Merry Christmas :)
I really like all three cards, as like you I love the birdies, I especially like the card with the snowflakes in white on black. Thanks for sharing x
Gorgeous cards - those singing birdies really reflect the joy of Christmas!

I love bird stamps. Your cards are adorable!
So cute! Thanks for participating in Taheerah's fun event!!
Oh how cute are these three little birds! Love these :-)
Oh my gosh, those birds are so cute! I want them! When I win that's what I am getting. You made 3 different cards with one stamp. That is versatile and what I love about stamping. When my dad was alive he always made sure the birds were fed. However, those nasty mutant ninja squirrels got more food then the birds did! LOL My sister is complaining about how the birds land on her window screens and leave holes in them so she can't open her windows when it's hot out. She would like these birds though because they can't put holes in her screens but they can sing! LOL Of course waking me up at 6am with there singing is another story altogether.
Thank you for showing us your cute, colorful cards. I love that paper with the music notes and snowflakes. Where did you get that? I have to get some! Thanks also for giving us the chance to win something.
Awww cute little birdies!
I love the black background, it gives the card a completely different look!
I love the black n white paper from SU! All three cards are adorable.
