I stamped the cute little robins (from Clearly Besotted Rockin' Robin clear stamp set) in Vintage Sepia Versafine then added the faces in Black Versafine. I used my Misti and did quite a few but, so far, have only cut these three out using the dies that come with the set. I coloured the red breasts in with a Lipstick Red Promarker. The little hats are from the same stamp set again stamped in the Vintage Sepia and coloured with the red Promarker. I fussy cut them out as it was a little quicker than lining up the die although it would have been neater if I had used the die so will next time when I won't be rushing (hopefully!). Again using my Misti, I stamped the branches and the music that came with the Rockin' Robin set along with the 25th which is from Hobby Art Christmas Post clear stamp set. Using a glue pen and glitter I added sparkle to the hats and the branches. The sentiments are also from the Clearly Besotted set and I stamped them on snippets of white card, trimmed them down and edged them with the red Promarker. I glued everything together and job done!
I would like to enter the following absolutely fabulous challenges:
