Robin in Distress (Ink!)

Shock, horror, I've actually made a card my hubby likes!  He's not at all keen on my eclectic style but I've kept this one quite restrained so as not to distract from the stamping and inking.
The robin stamp is by Funstamps and was inked with Distress Inks in Fired Brick, Brushed Corduroy and Walnut Stain.
The shaped card blank is from Craftwork Cards and I inked the edges with Brushed Corduroy using my Tim Holtz Distress Ink tool.  I then used the pine cone stamp from my favourite Stampin' Up set, inking it with Walnut Stain and Peeled Paint.
The patterned papers are Papermania Home for Christmas and the embossed card is Hunkydory.
Some Christmas ribbon and some gems and pearls finish it off.
