Hello there my crafty friends! I love the Robin Family and just had to share another card with you! I used a background from my crafty stash that was done with Midnight Blue and Aqua Lagoon Pixie Powders. I used the Double Pierced Ovals and cut it into an oval background piece. Using the Sublime Swirl embossing folder, I embossed a piece of white card. I put a frame around it using the Double Stitched Rectangles and added it with foam over the embossed background. I glued the pixied background to the centre. I cut a branch from the Cherry Blossom Frame die set in white and actually glued two together to make it a bit longer (I added a small flower in white to hide the join). From the Robin Family die set, I cut four of the robins in white and the nest and added them to the scene. I cut the eggs out of duck egg blue card and glued them into the nest. Using the Especially For You sentiment, I cut it in white and black, shadowed it then glued it to the top of the oval. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1.4" in size. All for now. Sue x
Morning Sue, a gorgeous card, lovely background, and very effective with the plain white birds. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx

Good Mornings Sue. This is lovely Sue. Personally ... I am not a lover of birds on cards ... But that's only my opinion and dose'nt take anything away from this beautiful card. So much detail with the little eggs. And the sentiment is lovely I feel an investment coming on. Thankyou Sue.Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.

A really lovely card. I like the way you’ve left the birds white as a great contrast to the beautiful blue background.

Morning Sue,
ReplyDeleteToday's card brings hope for the future as we all look forward to the Spring. Our pair of garden robins are enjoying poking around in the garden containers, that's when they're not chasing the blackbirds. Robins with attitude!
Beautiful card and I love the contrasting colours.
Hugs xxx Pauline
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - roll on Spring........

Another beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card Sue, love it xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. I would have to say that I particularly like Robins too. They are always around you when you are gardening and they always perch in really pretty places. I do like them on Christmas cards too and I think that the card you have posted today could make a really nice Christmas card too.
ReplyDeleteLisbeth
Hi Suelovely card the robins are sweet and the cherry blossom is a perfect partner
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteSweet card with the robin family and the nest. I have a robin
coming in to the patio more or less every day and he is the
sweetest little thing with a real red breast.
Stay safe

This card makes me think of spring Sue, with everything that is going on I do wish that it was spring so maybe we could be out of this turmoil!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteLovely cute card, especially like the little eggs in the nest.
Love Helen xxx
Hi Sue, sorry I have missed the last two days, both cards were lovely but today's is gorgeous. I love the Robin family and that your dies have enough detail in them to not even need colouring if you don't have time or just want them to remain white.
ReplyDeleteHeather T - belated birthday wishes, I hope you enjoyed your day.

Hi Sue

Thank You Sue
Please take care my friend

A really lovely card. I like the large amount of white on the birds and the branches. X
ReplyDeleteThe first words that came to my mind when I saw today's cards were: peace, love and family. You captured all these into this wonderful scene, Sue. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHugs from Toronto to you all.
Stay safe and healthy.

Hi Sue., New beginnings and spring is what this card means to me. Love the colours. Stay safe x
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be my spring birthday go to die set. I have a number of friends and family who are really bird lovers (not that everyone shouldn't be) and this set with the cherry blossom branch is lovely. I really like this card using them and when I get through this winter something happy to look forward to playing with. Right now I need to finish up on the Christmas cards and presents which need to be mailed. A sad year but hoping next year we will all have vaccines to protect us and a normal life. That's what I want for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteA terrific Tuesday to all of you,
Stephanie K
This card is lovely. I really like the background and the sentiment is a favorite of mine. Letting someone know you are thinking of them and sending a card for no reason other than they are on your mind and in your heart is a wonderful reason to send a card.
