A Christmas robin - or rather four robins .... and a DT Call

Bearly Mine Designs are looking to expand their team, and have asked for entries to be submitted using their papers.  There are lots of freebies on the site if you do not have any.  I don't have any of their Christmas papers so used these lovely holly freebies which go so well with my little robins.  I have made a flower using Marianne Ds dies, and punched some leaves.  The flower is held together with a sparkly brad.  My robins are coloured with Copics, with Glossy Accents added to the berries.



Robins are so often seen on cards for Christmas, so I had to go with the flow.  This is from  http://www.imag-e-nation.com/.

I am entering this for the following challenges:

One Stitch at a Time - Christmas
Bee Crafty - Christmas
Marks Finest Paper - Holiday cards
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Anything that flies
Stampavie and More - Christmas




Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate your comments.
