    Cardinal and foil

    What do cardinal’s and foil have in common, well let me tell you.  This card was created to give a little sparkle to the card.  Who doesn’t like sparkle especially us women.

    First I created this card by crumpling up some tin foil and placing it for the background of this pretty cardinal. I then added a few more smaller pieces of foil on the branches.  Finally, I used copic markers to color the bird and then went over it with a gel pen to give the look of feathers.  I left the inside blank so this card could be used for Christmas or during the winter season.

    You are in my thoughts (pink)

    This card was made for a special little lady who is battling kidney failure.  She and her mom are two of the bravest women I know.  The background on this card was a new technique I wanted to try out.  Blending ink into watercolor paper. To me it says peacefulness.   The birds reminded me of friends talking to each other about what is going on in their lives.  I added  few of the birds on the inside also.
