Julia *Day 4*

Quick post today! Check out Julia's charming bird card:
And here's my take:This cute, digi bird by Tiffany Doodles was colored using Faber-Castell PITT Artist pens and the bright background was created with Distress Inks on white cardstock. Sentiment by Hero Arts.

Have a great Thursday, my friends! It's track and field day for my preschoolers so that should make for an interesting afternoon. :)

Oh that background is gorgeous! And the bird is so happy-he looks like one in real life that has been hanging around my front porch this week:)

Beautiful...I love the contrasting styles, Julia's subdued vintage bird and your bold and lively bird. Excellent inspiration!
I'm having flashbacks to my PE teacher days...I'm picturing hundreds of pre-schoolers running amok and having a fantastic time. You will certainly need to recover from your Track and Field experience.
Hope you are having fun!
