Robins


 I wasn't going to post these robin, the card is a bit rough around the edges but when you have new dies and experimenting turning cardinals into robins you just have to use them. However it wasn't a quick card those pesky birds are fiddly.

The dies are from MFT and were in my Simon Says Stamp parcel since they were the only place I could get them from. The plan was to use a Freshly Made Sketch which didn't work because they are so big.
The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamps and when it was all stuck I was impressed with the plain white card which is why I faux stitched round the card with a pen. Also the reason why my stitching is crooked must remember to draw a faint pencil line round the card next time if there will be a next time.

They are cute but lots of pieces so as you say a bit fiddly but worth it. I love the santa hats and the holly and berry branches they are each sitting on, and the faux stitching does finish it well, also love the complementary red sentiment too. x
