Christmas Chipmunk and Red Cardinal Holiday Cushion

Christmas Chipmunk and Winter Cardinal are ready to spread Christmas cheer in your home this holiday season with this holiday throw pillow! On the front of this Christmas pillow, the chipmunk awaits the time when he can open his presents under the Christmas tree as he wears a Santa hat of his own! On the back, the cardinal bird is quite happy in his spot before a beautiful snowy pine tree. I photographed this adorable chipmunk one day on my backyard steps as he came to eat some seeds I'd left nearby. His little paws looked like they were asking nicely for some more. Who could resist? The beautiful cardinal I actually captured in summer, but I love the way these birds (even the more brown, slightly duller in colour female) brighten a cold winter day. I decided to share this experience with you by cutting out the original image and putting it on another of my photos featuring the pine tree in my backyard. The chipmunk design is a photo cutout and edit, with the Christmas tree and hat used and manipulated with permission to fit the overall style of this wintery design. The cardinal is a cut out, laid on the background of another of my photos and topped with a bit of lace, which was used with permission.
