Clarity Window Cards

I thought I'd show you my robin cards first as they didn't get shown today.  I had the idea for them when I was out walking Maya.  We've sponsored a dog with the Dogs Trust for many years and their famous slogan is "A dog is for life, not just for Christmas".  I thought the same should apply to robins.  They tend to be associated with Christmas but are in the garden all year round.


So I decided to make exactly the same card in Winter and Summer versions.


It's my "A robin is for life, not just for Christmas" card.  :-)


I thought I'd also add some old cards that I've previously made with these stamps.  This is a birthday card I made for a crafty friend.  I coloured the dog to look like her spaniel, Hamish.

I'm afraid I can't remember the make of the stamp as I've had it for years.  It's really cute though.


This black and white one was made for the monthly Clarity Club challenge.  The challenge was "Black & white, 3 cats and a bird".


I made a matching insert for it.


I also made exactly the same card in colour.  My opinion keeps changing on which I prefer.

    To me, the first robin card looks real - it really is Santa flying in the sky and it is a real robin spreading happiness! Wonderful work - again, Lynne.
