Jen B has a basic sketch at Freshly Made Sketches which should be easy except when you have limited supplies. It makes me wish I'd brought other stamps but also makes me think creatively and that's a good thing to keep this old brain working.
I started with the
Double Frames from Penny Black, using the smaller one. Next I got out the
Spring Birds from Honey Bee. I don't think I've made their version of a Robin before and I had to research because our Robins don't look like this. It's actually a European Robin. For more color, I inked the background with Tumbled Glass DI and added a branch from Honey Bee's
Spring Greens. The frame was originally cut in white but that looked washed out so I changed it to this light gold/tan color and popped it up.
Thanks for dropping by and spending a bit of your day with me.

A lovely card Bobby. I think that robin looks nice setting inside that tan frame. Have a wonderful weekend.
Beautiful interpretation of the sketch with limited supplies! Your robin is unique and beautiful, and your frame adds so much interest.
