Happy Christmas Robins

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope you have had a good weekend. The weather here has been very nice until Saturday evening when it started raining. My husband had last week off work and we did get to do some nice things. The last treat was going to Bournemouth with our daughter to see Michael McIntyre in his new show Happy and Glorious. It was very funny and I will be buying the DVD when it comes out.

I have been making Christmas cards again. This time I used a sheet from Kanban. I just love robins on Christmas cards.


I made two cards with the main images on the sheet. The paper came from my stash it is all covered with robins. 


Both of these cards are 8" x 8". I used some Sizzix dies to frame the images. 


The sentiments were on the sheet too with matching robins. 


There was a smaller image on the sheet and I made this  5" x 5" card out of the snippets from the other cards. 



Here is the toy department at Selfridges and you can see the dinosaur which cost £4500. Someone asked if we were tempted to buy it and which we weren't but it was nice to look at. 


That is another three cards for the Christmas stash. I do need lots more so there will be many more Christmas makes on the way. 

I hope you have a great week. I have just one week of the school holiday left. I had better make the most of it. 

Happy crafting.

Hugs Jackie

    Hi Jackie, love the cards, robins are always a favourite for Christmas. Love your designs. Glad to hear you have a great week with hubby, it only seem's like yesterday when you counting down the days to the start of the summer hols, but judging by what I have read and the photo's, I think it's fair to say you have certainly had a good one.
