A Bluebird for Barbara

Photo Details

Poster: Broom

It's TeaPot Tuesday, and this week our cards are going to Barbara, the best friend of SCSer Missro's Mom. Barbara has ovarian cancer, and we're hoping to fill her mailbox with smiles.

Stamped the flowers and sentiment with Brilliance Pearlescent ink on pink pirouette cardstock, then ran the edges over the stamp pad. For the caged bird, I combined two of Faith's digital images, colored with Copics, cut out and popped on top of the pink panel.
