Less is More week 108-paper piercing

Well the snow didn't come to anything, thank goodness, I think it was too cold!!!! This week's challenge over at LIM towers is for PAPER PIERCING
We want to see some tiny holes dotted around on your creations this week ...
I have to admit to a struggle with this one, it was either very simplistic or definitely over egged!!
Anyway I settled on this although I'm not that happy with it.


 The EF is a Darice Christmas one but I made the robin into a blue tit:) I sponged a little Stormy Skies DI around the edges and matted onto dark blue card. I paper pierced some musical notes and the sentiment is an old  SeeDee one.
Thanks for popping in on such a cold night and I'd love to know what you think:)

    I'm sure the robin didn't mind being turned into a tit.........! Great effect with the embossing folder and paper piercing. We had some snow yesterday but, like you, think it was far too cold for snow - still it's a bit milder today thank goodness!
