I used a Memory Box die called Grove Branch for the silhouette on both cards. The Halloween scene used a very old wood mounted stamp set from SU and random stickers for the Boo. The branch is used as lightning to make it spooky.
The branch is used for a perch for the Picket Fence birds singing their Christmas Carols. The sentiment and music notes are Lawn Fawn. Going to take a nap now.
Be kind to one another.

I'm so sorry you have a cold and I hope you stay in and be especially careful until you feel better. You certainly didn't lose any of your imagination and creativity because of not feeling well! I just love that you thought to use a branch as a bolt of lightening! That background paper is perfection and the way you stamped the images reminds of a tornado in the Wizard of Oz with everything swirling around in a terrible storm! Awesome for Halloween! On the other side of scary is calm and that's what your sweet birds on a branch reflects! It's a darling Christmas card!! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #32! Get well soon! Hugs, Darnell
Feel better soon :)

Hope you are feeling much improved! I love that you used the branch for lightening what a brilliant idea (no pun intended). Both cards are lovely. Thank you so for playing along with us at Twofer Card Challenge #32.
This is such a clever use of that branch on both cards, but used as lightning it looks amazing! A great twofer for 2 different occasions - well done! Now go get some rest and take care of that cold! Feel better soon!
So sorry to hear that you've got a cold, Brenda! Sure hope you start to feel better really soon dear friend. You've got a fun pair of Twofers here. That branch as a lighting bolt was completely out-of-the-box, and is a fantastic idea, and the background you've created is perfectly spooky! Sweet little Christmas card, too! Another great background, and those little birds are adorable and quite festive. So happy to see you in the gallery at The Twofer Challenge! Take care and feel better. xo Bev

I am so sorry to hear you have a cold Brenda (they seem to drag on for forever, don't they?!!) but on a bright note, I absolutely LOVE your twofer! Using the branch as a lightening bolt for your Halloween card is creative genius and I love it!! And your Christmas card couldn't be any sweeter using that same branch as the silhouette! Beautifully done my friend!! Hope you're feeling better soon and thanks for joining us at The Twofer Challenge!! :0)
So sorry you have a cold. Pamper yourself. Your twofer cards are great. How clever to think of a tree branch as lightening. Love those sweet songbirds on the branch.n Your background sponging a beautiful setting.
I'm so sorry you aren't feeing well and have a cold. It is that time of year and the temps have been going back and forth doesn't help the cause. Feel better soon!!! I have to say though, you didn't lose any creativity with not feeling well! The lightening bolt from the tree branch is just genius! It really does look like a lightening bolt too. One of those spidering bolts. Making your scene very spooky looking! I love your sweet little Christmas birdies on the branch, so cool that it looks completely different as a branch. lol Well done with this challenge Brenda, you knocked it out the park for sure! Hugs, Brenda
Beautiful design and I can imagine them singing with joy. I hope you get to feeling better soon.
you are so very clever with coming up with ways to use your stamps and dies in unique and unusual ways. I saw that "lightening" and thought "genius"!! Friend, I sure hope that after your rest you are feeling better. Take care of yourself. Miss you, can you believe it has been a year since we were all together in Indianapolis? Stay safe and well...Heart hugs and much love, col
Darling musical birds, so cute!! And, love how creative you were using the branch for your Halloween card!! I hope you get to feeling better very soon! Take care, hugs!!
I'm sorry you aren't feeling well, my friend. Take care and feel better real soon. Love your branch and how well it works for a perch for these cute birds! It works just as well for your Halloween card! Love those spooky stamps in the background!
Your little birds in their Christmas hats, sitting on their winter branch are adorable, Brenda ... and what a brilliant idea to use the same silhouette branch as lightning on your halloween card ... spooky and so atmospheric! Hope you're feeling much better! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Hugs, Anita :)
How on Earth did you get a cold! Who spread their germs to you from over six feet away? The nerve of them! I hope you are getting lots of rest and feeling better. Sometimes a cold can really knock you out! Brenda, these cards are wonderful! I am so impressed with your bolt of lightening, and that is one spooky card! Then, on the other hand, your Christmas card couldn't be more charming - talk about a duo personality tree branch! Thanks so much for joining in the fun with us at the Twofer Card Challenge!
