Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
We have an extensive garden in our front yard. Our home is on a corner lot, and we have almost NO BACK yard, so I have to garden out front. We have 7 gardens within the big garden, (Asian, Secret, Butterfly, Zeroscaped, Bird, English and Desert). So, you can imagine the wildlife it attracts! We have birds come to visit every morning and evening. Speedy the Cat and Spittie Kittie sit on the back of the couch, in front of the bay window and watch for hours.
The tree image was stamped twice and each image was colored with Copic Markers. I cut out both and layered the leaves and trunk. The Birds were each stamped twice and I cut out and layered the wings. The white sentiment and circle were sponged, Certainly Celery on the bottom and Apricot Appeal on the top.
