I'm starting the season with Northwoods Rubber Stamps, one of the stamps in the 'Nuthatch & Bird Feeder' stamp set.
After stamping this sweet winter bird image, I used my Copic markers for coloring. The oval frame is actually part of his image, so the rectangle die cut is the first border cut. I used Gina Marie Designs X-Stitch Border die for the edge.
I covered the A2 card base with the black dotted paper and then added the completed image with sentiment. Sweet, simple and ready to mail.

I can see why you love the stamps Pam, this one is a beauty! I love how the little bird extends into the frame. You did a great job with the colouring, the red border contrasts beautifully with the blues and greens.
