I so did not intend to make a Christmas card for this. But - when I was making my TPT card, I die-cut the image into jigsaw pieces and then when I went to assemble them, one was missing. I thought I had dropped it into my background box whilst trying to find a suitable background, and thought it would be quicker to stamp and colour another one rather than empty my background box and search through it. And then when I went to die-cut the second one, there the missing piece was on the floor beside my Big Shot. So having this coloured on hand made for an even speedier card than last week - half an hour while the bread was rising before it needed a set of stretch and folds. And the colouring looks better in real life - our light isn't great at the moment. The grey in the robin's breast is more grey, and the brown is browner. I also meant to add gold Posca pen dots framing the image panel, but oops - I brought the pen downstairs and then went to bed early totally forgetting about it.
Matted the image on matt gold, used the same for the lacy border and photo corners. Stamped the tag on some of the sponged area from round the image so the colour matches, and the punched sprigs were on my desk.

I find it a challenge to colour collage type images but you, apparently, do not! This is lovely and so beautiful trimmed out in gold. Love the photocorners!

How great you found the piece, and had a colored one to add to the challenge today. Pretty card with the bird, singing a joyous song. The gold and RED is just beautiful, mf!
