TLC1076 Christmas Robin

Photo Details

Poster: Cook22

For the TLC this week,: TLC1076 - Faux Patina - 10/06/2025 by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers

I took my own advice and went for a Christmas theme.
I added a frame to the background, perched a robin at the bottom and some holly up at the top, and die-cut a sentiment from the same glitter card as the frame.

What a stunning sample for this technique, Sabrina. Your little Robin is sweet delivering your Christmas wishes. The patina looks amazing.

Great card! Your faux patina turned out beautifully, and makes a wonderful background for your robin. The whole card has a lovely vintage feel.

Sometimes I'm sad we don't have robins here all year long but then....I couldn't look forward to them in the spring. Sometimes they come back a little too early. That sweet robin looks so beautiful on top of that glorious background.
