I think this image is just so sweet, everything in it shouts "SPRING" to me. When the Robins start coming back that is a clear sign that Spring is coming, I love their beautiful blue eggs.
I stamped this image onto a piece of plain white card stock with Stazon gray ink, I didn't want very dark edges, and colored it with Prismacolor pencils, no baby oil this time, and then, I paper pierced around it with the retired SU Paper Piercing pack, I used the Labels Collection outline, that is all the embellishment I put on this card.
Here is a picture of the finished inside, the sentiment is from my stash and the butterfly is from the SU set called Best Thoughts, both stamped with Wisteria Wonder ink.
Here is the CASology Cue Card that inspired mine.
Thank you for stopping by, until next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.

Such a beautiful stamp to add to your collections from Inkadinkado! What a deal Maria who could walk by it? So darn lovely! Reminds me of my favorite artist from Hallmark, Margolein Basitin!
Thank you Patti, you are right, now that you mentioned it, this image does resemble her lovely paintings. Maybe this is what drew me to it.
So pretty ! Would you believe I saw a Bluebird when we had snow a few weeks ago ??? Yes, this looks like Margolein`s work . Hallmark may be calling soon !!
Sonny, I wish Marjolein had rubber stamps with her incredibly beautiful images.
How lucky you saw that Bluebird, those are gorgeous.
Thanks for stopping by, my friend.
Maria, lucky you, coming across this beautiful stamp on clearance! It's a gem! I love your coloring, and the dots pattern, too...a very pretty effect! Thanks for joining us at CASology!
This is so beautiful! I LOVE the dots around the image, it really draws the eyes in!
Thank you Judy, sometimes I strike gold in the bargain area, this stamp is surely a gem.
Absolutely perfect nest! Love it for our egg challenge--what a sweet home. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
Thank you Lisa, after I finished coloring this image, I felt it needed something and the paper piercing was it, I didn't want to add ribbon or any other embellishment that will take away the attention from this sweet Robin's Nest.
Thank you Joyce, I'm glad I found it and was able to use it for this fun challenge.
Gorgeous coloring on this beautiful image and I love the way you framed it! Thanks for playing along with CASology this week!
Thank you Jen, the paper piercing around the image was a good idea.
