Christmas Robin

I make at lease one Christmas card using this gorgeous robin image every year, this one is for my Mum to give to her best friend.


I have used an image and papers from my Joanna Sheen - The Jayne Netley Mayhew Collection Part 2 CD. This card will be hand delivered so I was able to add lots of decoupage layers, it is not actually a decoupage image on the CD so I print it out multiple times and cut my own.


I also decorated the inside of the card.


I would like to enter this card into the following challenges.

The Male Room Challenge 25 - Christmas or Seasonal Greetings
Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge 100 - Traditional Christmas Colours
Come and Get It Challenge - Anything goes Christmas
The Corrosive Challenge 239 - Merry Christmas
Pile It On Challenge 98 - Anything Goes Christmas/Winter
The Glory of Christmas Challenge 73 - Outside scene
Creative Moments Challenge 81 - Anything Goes/Traditional Christmas

  11. Love the traditional robin and colours in your card. The decoupage details are wonderful. A shame this CD is no longer on Joanna Sheen's site I have seen it on ebay but worry about the quality of used CD Roms wish I had bought it when it first came out,
