The background started out with bisters. Since it was way too bright for winter, I opted to sponge in various memento blues, leaving only a bit of clouds showing. The bird was colored with copics and pencils and fussy cut. After cutting the branch, I used my MISTI to line up the bird on the branch and stamp again for placement. Glossy Accents were added to his eyes. The sentiment is Paper Smooches. Thanks for stopping by.

Another jaw dropping gorgeous card Nancy. The background looks incredible, I love the depth of colour and sense of movement. Your little Christmas crazy bird looks so cute - love the hat!! He looks fabulous perfectly perched on his branch. Pinned and faved my friend.

Love seeing you play with these crazy birds and now, their accessories!! Awesome wintry night sky with the bisters and sponging combined like that! Perfect placement with the MISTI to sit him on his branch, and how cool to see him in his Santa hat, wishing like we all do, for Peace on earth!!
You did a fantastic job on this card - the coloring and simplicity are TOP NOTCH, Nancy!
