I used watercolor paper for the bird which came from the "Touch of Nature" set. The "Flannel Plaid" background stamp was used on the Not Quite Navy card stock and the fern from the same set. Not a lot of sets involved in this card. I used a blender pen and markers for the bird. I stamped both backgrounds in their matching colors. VersaMark was just not dark enough, remember I had to make the colors vivid so they would hold their own without embellishments. I used Really Rust marker on the birds tummy. I wanted the bird to be the focal point and the eye is drawn right to the reds. I didn't incorporate rust into the card stock because I wanted to keep your eye centered on the card. Funny how that works, huh? I taped it to Basic Black card stock and that was it. The bird took the longest to do but all in all it was a pretty quick card!
Thank you for stopping by!
