Good Morning Robin

I'm back with another card made with one of the new Red Gingham stamps available exclusively through Little Claire.  This one is called 'Good Morning Robin' and you can see all the details plus some more DT inspiration here.  I've used the stamp to make a mini-easel card - it's only 6cm wide but I decided this was a stamp that didn't need very much extra added to it because there's already so much detail on it.

For my background I've used some of the Kraft paper and also some cream, green and red Christmas paper from Craft Creations plus one of the Red Gingham circular sentiment stamps.  I finished the card with some red nail head gems.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Jingle Belles - 'shape up for the holidays'
Make My Monday - 'birds or bugs' (hope you don't mind a Christmas card!)
