I really like the distressed/vintage treatment of the paper. Was this done with the Close to Cocoa direct pad to paper and then an application of blue using some watercolour technique? I'm inspired to try it. TFS
Thanks, Tanya! The blue background, bird, and leaves were watercolored...the blue used brush and water to make it easier to make a wash; the rest used blender pen. The brown was applied with a sponge. HTH! Hugs, Betsy

There is nothing wrong with hoarding embellishments! LOL! Oh, wait, I AM supposed to use those, aren't I!? I love the coloring and sponging on this card! Such gorgeous colors and those jumbo eyelets give it a great touch! Beautiful!
