Christmas Robin

 

Isn't he cute? Digi image free at Sliekje digital stamps.  Coloured with Promarkers, Stickles and some Glossy Accents for the berries.  Raided my own and my neighbour's Promarkers for a berry red (well, my idea of what a berry red should be!) but was disappointed.  A red Papermania watercolour brush marker was the best for the berries. X-Cut ornate frame. Papers, sentiment, brads are Papermania. Silver mirri.

I'd like to enter this card into Wild Rose Studio Festive Frolics Christmas Card challenge. They're having a blog hop - take a look.

Thanks for visiting. Ger x.

I know I've told you before about Sliekje's free digi stamps.  You have to check them out, they are so gorgeous.  As soon as I saw this image I knew it would be perfect for the many cards I have to make for my teenage daughters' friends' birthdays.  Papers are from docrafts lovely Tulip range, used a circle punch to create the scallop, coloured the image with Promarkers, blue distressed the edges, and since I don't yet own a rolled flower die, I used distress inks to colour some paper, cut out wobbly spirals and rolled them.  Added some stickles and the bff is from Forever Friends alphabet.  Leaves punched with an X-Cut punch, coloured with DI.
