Free birds!

My latest order from HoneyBee Stamps included a wonderful black & white postcard/thank you note.  By now you know how much I love birds - I thought I'd give it a bit of color, and it turned out so pretty I HAD to put it on a card - you don't mind, right?  The only error in my judgement was to forget to photograph the 'before!'

The birds were Prismacolor pencil colored then I Copic colored the background to match the DSP.  The sentiment was die-cut using one of those old PFS Label dies and popped onto a matte gold one just one step larger. 


In the closeup, you can see that I've fussy-cut the image from the postcard after coloring. I'm sure agree this was such a nice thank you
on top of their wonderful customer service.

The background is a piece of their Merry Moments DSP that I added
a bit of texture to with my SU Subtle Texture then gave it a good
bit of extra splatter with white acrylic paint, and gold and white gold wc paints!


See that darling little un-twisted twine bow?  Thanks, LeAnne!  I went in
for a try right after I read your post this morning!

Wishing you all a wonderful, creative weekend - glad you spent a bit of time with me!
