Baby Robins

Photo Details
Poster: stiz2003

 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.

So beautifully natural, you did a fabulous job with these colors and the leafy die-cuts make a perfect addition to the pretty birds!

This is so adorable, Nancy! As always, your coloring is top notch! I really like how you've framed your art work with the foliage and script background!

How sweet. Spring is coming! Thanks for sharing regarding enlarging. I guess it's the obvious that causes me trouble. I, too, have some small stamps that I don't use for that very reason. I think that will change now.

These little birdies look right at home in that tree..I think that is the right color..don't most birds have sort of neutral coloring at first..this turned out lovely and your hand stitching is great!
