For the second week running I had a disaster with my CC card, last week I spilled coffee over it and had to remake and this week I forgot about the option and had a girl character!!! Hopefully next week will be better. I've used a little Hanglar boy and he's watercoloured and cut out. The card blank layers and the trees are all cut on the Cricut and then embossed with various CB embossing folders. I've also done some sponging over the embossing in places and over the trees for shading. The paper roses were part of a pressie from my lovely BG buddy Tara, I've seen them around in blogland but these are the first I've had, might have to get some more ;D they're so pretty, thanks T x.
Haven't seen the baby robin today but the parents are still in and out of the shrubs where it was last seen, hope it's ok. I got told off by both parents today for going up the garden, who's garden is this?!!! The most difficult thing is keeping the dog away, he's so nosey and remembers that he last saw the cat near the nest and wants to investigate! Well have a lovely Sunday. TFL. Chris x

That rosebud trim is so sweet! I love your triple use of the MS doily border punch. And your coloring is beautiful...love the shading!
Chris,
This card is altogether fantastic. All of your embossing and color layering has paid off because the image is just leaping off the paper. Beautiful. All of the elements are so very complimentary and I love the little flowers, you should go get more for sure because you've done them justice. Too cute.
Enjoy your weekend,
Stephanne
