Rockin' Robins

 Hello again,

Well, we are still enjoying a wet summer here in Aus, our dams are full to over flowing. Having allergy to environmental moulds is no fun during Covid, my doctor tells me that so long as I don't have any other symptoms of Covid I am safe to go about my business. 

During the most recent wet spell I got my Christmas gifts out and made six cards with paper pieced robins, all the scraps came from my scrap bags and boxes, I had intended to stamp the included sentiment in the top corner but for some reason the embossing powder did not stick, so covered up my mistake with little signs.

Here are my cards:-



What I used:-

10x21cm card blanks
white card stock
Woodware stamp Robin Stack clear stamp
Brown, red, orange, and green paper scraps
Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad
Clear embossing ink
Gold embossing powder
Scraps of kraft paper, narrow strips design papers
white loose glitter 
Double sided tape, Helmars tacky craft glue
single hole punch (conveniently fit the size of the berries)

I would like to enter these cards in:-

Thank you for looking in...

Have a wonderful week... 
Megan

A lovely collection of jolly robins on your Christmas cards, using up plenty of snippets too!

Good job you escaped the rain and made your way to the snippets playground where the sun always shines. Xxx

Your rockin robins are so cute and I smiled when i read that. Love the paper piecing. It is so funny when heat embossing doesn’t work out, who knows why. I usually blame the weather. Hope you have a happy Valentine’s Day!

Sorry to hear you are having such a wet summer - we are rather dry here across the ditch...
Loving these fabulous cards Megan - that image could be use for any breed of small bird, but I must admit they make wonderful robins
Stay safe
