Good morning folks, it's my turn to share a project with the fabulous new stamps from Chocolate Baroque. This card features Mr Robin, I adore robins and mince pies so this stamp is going to be one of my all time favourites.
I stamped the image and coloured it with Lyra Polycolour Pencils. I inked around the image using distress inks (Pine Needles and Festive Berries) and then added a little distressing with Gathered Twigs. I stamped and embossed a holly border using one of the little stamps from Family Christmas with versamark ink and used a chunky embossing powder, and then added a sprinkle of gold frantage powder. I stamped the sentiment and added a bow topped with a little button and some twine to finish the card.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
52 Christmas Card Throwdown: Old Fashioned Christmas
Aud Sentiments: Anything goes with a sentiment
Penny Black and More: Anything Christmas
Simon Says Stamp: Christmas Critters
The Pencil Case: Anything goes
Thanks so much for visiting today, hope to see you again soon
