Perched robin

This is a card I managed to make just before we went on holiday. It's using a Penny Black stamp that I saw a teamie use and just had to have, that was in January and it's just seen ink! I decided to colour it as a robin.

I stamped onto some peach patterned paper which I thought gave a wintry feel. I then stamped and coloured the image using Distress crayons, glitter markers and pencils. I added some snow with a white gel pen. 

I've just ordered a set of 100 gel pens! I feel like when I was a child and you got a bumper pack of felt tip pens but invariably some didn't work.

I'm entering this card into the Rudolph Days challenge for December.

We had a lovely trip to Lanzarote, staying in Teguise. Unfortunately our flight was delayed by a day and then the trip we had booked to Fuerteventura was cancelled. We had a great time though as the hotel was so peaceful and relaxing.

A couple of views of our hotel from across the bay.

When our trip was cancelled, we took ourselves off to the capital Arrecife as we hadn't been before.

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and I wish you all a Happy, healthy and creative 2025. I will begin commenting again in the next couple of days, apart from DT commenting which I am catching up on today.
