Well I did warn you I am in Christmas card mode before..... This time using the sketch over at Midnight Madness. Before any one asks ..... This is for an elderly relative and my usual style would not be "understood". Lol.
These cute little robins are from Just Ink Lined. Coloured with promarkers, with just a touch of white glittery snow on the branch. This was framed with a touch of white stickles added to the scallops.
The diagonal panel is dotty embossed white to which I added a couple of lengths of white organza ribbon. The swirls are white, heat embossed and stuck to the white pearlised BP (scallop cut). The robins added next after a touch of white fibres wound round. A white flower and white snowflake added. Some little white pearls to balance the corners and all stuck to a white card stock base. There we have it...... just right for great auntie Rose :)
There are a few challenges which I will enter this into in the meantime.....
