Singing Birds

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm sliding in at the last minute with this one.

Both of these dies are quite old.  I hope they are still available.  If not, I'm pretty sure

that Memory Box has something similar.  Their new Backyard Wren is high on my wish list

but for now these little gems will have to do.

The branch was cut from cardstock and colored with a Copic marker (branches) and 

a sponge dauber with Distress Oxide ink (leaves).

 

The birds were cut from watercolor paper and colored with a damp waterbrush and ink squished

into the top of the inkpad.

I used the branch die to emboss the background and to finish it off, covered the birds with

sticky notes and splattered with some Brushed Corduroy re-inker and White Gouache.

I love this sentiment and think this card will go to a sweet friend who is going through

chemo.  She's a singer.
