With a nod to the London Olympics, Stef chose one of their renowned department stores, Selfridge's, as our source of inspiration for this week. I chose this BOX for Christmas cards for mine. Some robins do stay through the winter in Missouri where I live....so it will make an appropriate Christmas card.

OMG.I LOVE how you made the bird punched bird into a robin. I really had to look at your detailed coloring. I love birds and will definitely be saving and trying your technique. Then there is your awesome winter scene with the curved ground and punched holes. So creative. I just LOVE it all. TFS Into my favs.....and printed too!
