I made this for the ATC Challenge, #11 (feathers and birds). This was fun, and I finally used my Garden Collage set! I adore this cute little bird. The image is painted with craft inks using the blender pen. It's hard to tell, but I distressed the edges of the Kraft paper with my bone folder - pretty daring for me!

Woo hoo, Linda! Your first ATC! I've been wanting to start doing these too! Your coloring is just lovely, and so realistic. And you fooled my eye with your faux stitching! Altogether- a beautiful piece. TFS! :-)

Oh! This is beautiful! This little bird is the perfect size for an ATC. The distressing is just right - not too much, not too little. And I had to look twice at the stitching! Aren't these little cards a great way to show off special techniques?! Thank you for sharing your art.
