Christmas Flamingo
Hi friends! Please join me in welcoming back the always fantastic Yana Smakula as a guest on our blog! The Christmas Critters she made on her last guest post was so popular she decided to make another! I think this design is so cute and I love the idea of a more traditional looking background using the Advent Plus Holiday Icons with red and green colors and then a pop of pink with the Summertime Animals flamingo! She finished off with an embossed sentiment from the Advent Sentiments stamp set! Be sure to watch the video and enjoy!

Like the whimsy of an flamingo on a Christmas card for a bit of the tropics. Did you know that a flamingo’s color is dependent on what it eats?
