I made this card for Kim's VSN challenge "Some advice" which had us looking at Trip Advisor for inspiration. I've always wanted to go to New Zealand and Australia, and found beautiful photos, which inspired my parrot card.
I made a bunch of alcohol ink backgrounds before VSN started so that I'd have them on hand. I colored directly onto my stamp with Local King Rubber Stamp markers. Then I cut out the parrot with coordinating die and used 3D pop dots to pop up parrot on alcohol bg, layering onto red then black layers. I added a strip of trimmed bg onto gold strip and then glued onto left side, adding 3 red dimensional dots to card. tfl

WOW!! Such vivid, dramatic colors! I hope you get a chance to share some details. Is that background made with alcohol inks? Stunning.
Thanks for playing along with my challenge!
