Take Three Challenges

The challenge at Less Is More this week is to choose three of the previous 29 challenges.
The three I have chosen are:
Week 9 A touch of red.
Week 15 Embossing.
Week 25 Button or ribbon.
The card I made is fairly straight forward. I stamped the lovely robbin with coffee Archival ink and coloured him with red watercolour pencil and a water brush, the ebossed card was done with a dotty Cuttlebug folder I also embossed the image. I distressed the edges of the image and embossed card.
The robin is an Andy Skinner stamp and the seasons greetings is an Inkadinkado stamp.
That's my first Christmas card of the year done.

    What a lovely robin image Hazel and you have coloured him beautifully.
    I feel that the sentiment may have sat a little more happily not quite so close to the edge of the card... what do you think?
    Well done on starting on the Christmas production line!
    Thanks so much

    This is absolutely beautiful. I love the simplicity of the white with texture and the pop of color with the bird. Very pretty!
