This card is another result of trying to clean up my desk. I've had this image for years, and I've had it printed up for nearly as long just waiting to be colored. She's gorgeous and this little scene is just too adorable. Also, the bottom two rows of scallops are from a scrap from a paper collection I am trying to use up. The bow is tied with both a satin black and a sheer black ribbon; the sheer bit was in my bits and pieces stash as was the little banner that the sentiment is stamped on. Yeay for using scraps!!
Here's a close up of the sweet image and the glittery snow. Isn't that little robin the cutest?
