Robin Christmas Tree Card

This card measures 6ins x 6ins and is made using a hand cut blank of PaperCellar Christmas patterned card.
As soon as I saw these Paperchase robin stickers (£1) I knew they would be brilliant for making a robin Christmas tree, because the pack included robins that faced both left and right, which doesn’t happen very often in packs of stickers.
The ones wearing the scarves in particular were perfect for using at each end of the bottom row.
All I have had to add to the design was the tub using small, square, flat backed gems, a red flat back gem star on the top and a few dots here and there to fill in the spaces.

    I never would have thought of using the little robins to form a Christmas tree. It's brilliant!

    Hi Helen. I love this one. What a great way to use those cute robins : ) Adding those little dots makes such a difference, something else that you have taught me, thank you : ) Take care.

    This effect is exactly what I tried to achieve with my robin stickers yesterday. Coincidence, or what? And the difference? Yours works! I think I got the spacing wrong and was a bit stingy with my robins. I'll have another go.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
