My Mom always did a white Christmas tree with red cardinals every year. Something she carried over from her Mom. I just put mine up and made this page of my parents who were together more than 50 years....
What a red cardinal symbolizes.
You may have heard that cardinals are a sign that a loved one who's passed is near, letting you know they're with you. This is one of the most well-known interpretations of the cardinal,

So sweet! I always think of our parents when I see a cardinal! it's a blessing when it happens! I love your Mom's idea of decorating a white Christmas tree with cardinals and I love your scrapbook page!
