Framed Robin 3

Here is the final in my trio of framed robins (Here is the first and second).

I decided to put the "snow" in the frame this time.

Here is the Merry Trio ...

Framed Robin 2

Here is my second framed Robin (no 1 is here).

This time I made a vertical column of the embossing paste through the tiny dot stencil leaving room for the sentiment. I used the smaller deckle frame.

... Just Add Ink : Just add a technique.  I used embossing paste.

... The Paper Players : Sketch.  I hope it's ok that I turned it vertical.

... AAA Cards : Max white space + optional geometric. Hope the rectangle frame counts.

Framed Robin 1

When I made the "Cutest Trio" card, I stamped a second set of robins, and coloured them the same way.

Here is the first of my framed robin series ...

I've just received my first pot of Altenew white embossing paste and had to try it out.  I love it.  So smooth! So white!

Cutest Trio!

I think this trio will be a firm favourite ... even in the years to come!

I'm loving colouring with my Prismacolor pencils with gamsol!

Blue Bird

Bringing out one of the cute Penny Black Christmas birds and the lovely fine Alexandra Renke dies, with some embossed vellum.

Love the effect of embossed vellum ... and added some Frosted Lace Stickles.
