Merry Christmas Robins


This morning I have finished a card for the "Anything Goes" - Week 36 at Christmas Card challenges. I really like this stamped image of Robins...I wonder why?  Anyway I coloured it with pencils for a change, then framed it using red Christmas paper - I did that tricky cut one end of the die and then stretch the opening and cut the other then thankfully when I sliced between the two it matched up perfectly. I mounted these two layer onto a gorgeous green fence background and then finished the bottom edge with lace, ribbon, a bow and hand-cut holly leaves and pearl berries. The last addition was the sentiment that I decided to cut in the wavy banner shape. So as the card is basically Red and Green I am also posting to 52 (Christmas) Card Throwdown, colour challenge.  Thanks for taking a peek
