Christmas Robins

 Happy Saturday!
Once again, I'm getting another card posted just under the wire for challenges. I didn't decide to make this until this morning, so luckily it was another quick card using a Craft Consortium image topper and some the robins paper in the collection.
 
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch to use for my A7 layout design.
I cut an A7 card base from Kraft card stock. I used all stash scraps of card stock, paper scalloped lace border ink-distressed with Worn Lipstick DI, some of my purchased glittery snowflakes and a round Spellbinders scalloped Doily Tear Drop die cut on which the focal robin image was placed. I brushed it with clear Wink of Stella liquid glitter first. The Lawn Fawn sentiment (I use it a lot) was stamped in Versamark, heat-embossed with white powder and cut with an LF Banner die. And both paper mat layers were punched with a  corner punch.
The back of the card has the same robin paper with corners punched as on front, with another scrap strip of card stock and an ink-sponged siggie.
Last look.
I'd had this in my mind for awhile, so I'm glad to have gotten it made.
Thanks for visiting and enjoy your weekend.

Gosh that's such an adorable card, Aimeslee! Love all the teeny birdies tweeting away. :-) Your use of the lace and the doily is just perfect for the festive mood.

Oh that Christmas robins are just so adorable. That paper is great, as is the sticker you used. It's a very tweet card-smile. And yes, it looks like we might have some hurricane effects-or more. We'll have to wait and see later this week until the spaghetti models get a bit more precise, but good thing we have a generator. Not as nice as yours since the hubby has to start it up as I won't play with it. I'm rather frightened of the electricity. :) I hope you're having a great start to the new week. hugs-Erika
