I saw today's color challenge and grinned. I am not sure I can make a card without brown! I recently purchased this stamp and was a bit disappointed that it was so tiny. So I stamped in Memento Black, scanned it, made it a bit bigger by about an inch and printed in draft. I have no clue what color baby robins are so I think these guys are robins. After coloring with pencils it sat there for several days. When I saw the challenge- yep, foliage will do. The background cream paper was randomly inked and stamped with a lightly ink script stamp.
I add stitches by hand since it is therapeutic and cheap.
Thanks for looking.

Wow! What a neat idea! I have a few tiny stamps too and may have to try this! LOVE your super sweet baby birdies!!! You are so right, this week's colors are perfect for your nature card! VERY pretty, calming and serene!!!
Wow, besides your creativity, I am amazed with your train of thought in creating such a spectacular card. I have had a lot of small images but never thought about scanning them to make them larger. I absolutely love your cards. Birds are my true friends and I love how you have brought those little guys alive. Thanks.
