This is for Lydia's closing challenge for DTGD2015.
I have made it for the teen son of an SCS member who is recovering from open-heart surgery. Facing further complications he needs to feel hope that he has many bright tomorrows to come.
If you have a card you'd like to send him, see THIS POST for more details and the address.

I brayered the sky, having masked off the sun. Sponged the grass. Brayered over again to fill in the sun. Used a ray stencil and some acrylic paste which bleached out the rays a little. The bird is paper-pieced from scraps. To finish it off I just doodled a border.

That paper pieced bird is so cool and so is your card, Sabrina. I have loved seeing all the bird cards and they are enabling me to place an order. :p
