A Country View robin merry Christmas to you

Hello I am back with my 2nd design team make for Country View Challenges.  The theme for this month is of course Christmas so let's see all your festive makes. You can enter a maximum of 5 times and into a maximum of 10 challenges, including ours. As always there is a fab £20 voucher up for grabs for one lucky randomly selected winner to spend on the website.  You can find all the details of the challenge and more examples made by my talented teamies here.

  Remember that when you buy from the Country View Crafts website UK postage is FREE on orders over £20.00 I have added some live links within my post to take you to some of the products I used.

This is my last DT post for Country View for 2022 and I thought I would use one of my favourite stamp sets from this year, which is the Visible Image Christmas robin set.

 It's been so popular that it is now out of stock but will be restocked soon.

This is what I got up to;

I stamped all 3 robins, coloured them and cut them out minus their legs.

I stamped and cut out 5 of the holly leaves images and coloured those too.

I stamped the branch around the card to make a frame and added some dots of colour using the "snow" stamp in the set with distress oxides...a very useful stamp!

I stamped the sentiment from "Sentimental Christmas" in the centre

I stamped the large robin in his place to give him his legs back!

and then added the coloured cut out one on top. I glued the holly in place, tucking the other robins behind. For a finishing touch I added some Stickles glitter glue and white pen details. Here is my finished make

with a couple of close ups

and 1 final shot;

I hope I may have inspired you to join in with the challenge this month? Once again here you can find all the details for our December challenge  here.  Enjoy all your Christmas prep and the festivities of my very favourite time of the year. 

 Country View challenges will return on 1st January. See you on the other side! 

Bye for now,
