I fell in love with this Hero Arts bird called "Wise Bird" . I tucked a woodgrain heart safely under his wing to deliver a message to a special friend.
The Pinstripe background was used several places. I stamped it in Soft Pool ink behind the bird & in white ink on the Spellbinder frame.
Before you cut your images put Glossy Accents on them. (The GA gives the image more structure.) I left a boarder around the images when I was trimming the leaves & branches. The wise bird was colored with Copic markers & I used a white gel pen on the wings & his chest. Enamel Accents on the eye. The sparkles on the heart are Rock Candy.
I love the Leafy Vines and used it to decorate my flower pot die from Spellbinders. Some distress ink really made the vines stand out.
For this card I created a bird house out of the flower pot with Hero Arts "Sunshine Papers". This heart die cut from Simon Says delivers another special message. I stamped the heart with Hero Arts "Leafy Vines" and a sentiment. The Pinstripe background was used again on this card but, I used it with the lines going two different directions. So fun!
This Wise Bird was colored only with distress ink. White accents were added with a gel pen. Enamel Accents were added to the eye again.
One last card...a fun, quick and happy card.
