Hi! This card was made for today's Color Combination Challenge: Riding Hood Red, Basic Gray and Always Artichoke... ( I added Black and White as neutrals.)
Speedy the Cat has been hiding this stamp in under the bath mat for the last 3 days. I have ignored his wishes, until today. This morning, it was on my FACE when I woke up!
The image was stamped in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink onto watercolor paper. Then, I used Classic Inks/re-inkers and colored it with an aqua painter. The belly was colored using a marker.
***I didn't like how the gray feathers looked, so I took my Inkssentials pen and colored the feathers closest to the body and then used Odorless Mineral Spirits and a blending stump to blend the white pen into the gray ink. This gave me the graduated color.
I used 2 Cuttlebug folders and a crimper on the white layers. (One on each! LOL!)

I think this is one of the BEST cards I've seen. I love it. It's beautiful, detailed and WAY too complicated for me to CASE! ha ha
It's going in my favorites!

Great card. He is ready for a party at Thanksgiving. I love the added bling. Really like the red ribbon. Great job Faith. It is hard to find a good turkey image. TFS
