Not sure!!

Hello Everyone...

Now dont hit me....but I wasnt sure what a 'Robbin' looked like and had to google..lol..then I had to look through 3 gazillion images to find one...nope.. none. So went to the ever faithful 'Raising our kids"...bingo...

He's only tiny...but he's there...and I needed one for a challenge over at Winter wonderland 

Here's my card...



Cute wee boy decorating a tree for the birds...



Coloured with pencils, a bit if glitter and tiny pearls...LOTV sentiment from last year..papers from scrapbox...AND...I did embossing with my snowflake folder. A few more pearls and a punched border..fiskars [not the cat biscuits 'friskars'...thats what I used to call it]...lol..

I'm getting good, I only had 11 mins to do this post and did it in 8...but now I'm burbling...wasting my 3 mins when I should be warming up the car.....

Thanks for stopping by and all the lovely comments you always leave...must fly..people could be needing a sticking plaster....

Luv CHRISSYxx

Hahahahahaha. Just when I think, "Ok, I'm gonna leave a 'serious' message this time, you go and post something like this! Will the laughter ever cease? I highly doubt it and wouldn't want it to.
That image almost choked me up. Reminds me of my son when he was little always feeding the birds. Wonderful card and I'm so happy that posted this in the nick of time!
Hugs,
Lisa xx

This is so sweet Chrissy, love your stamp :) makes me smile seeing it xxx

Cheryl said...

Oh so sweet! I love this image. The bit of glitter really sets off the treat perfectly.

When I was outside with my dogs today I was just noticing that the robins around my area are all flocking up and getting ready to migrate south. Its a sure sign winter is on its way. (Insert sad face here.) But, on the other hand, I am always excited to see them come spring because it means beautiful weather is on its way back.

PS - you colored the robin perfectly.
