The bird is stamped onto glossy, then wax paper embossed and ironed on to the glossy card. I used sponging to apply the ink and SU markers over the image.
Sending to a friend that got me into looking at birds and 'birding' while we were both caregivers at home.

What a terrific challenge combo! I love the look of the embossed wax paper impression and that fun plaid. Really this card just totally rocks. And thanks for the shopping tip... I'll have to go check it out next time!

Ah. Clever idea to stamp first; it's hard enough on glossy without the added wax. The soft background adds a lovely look. I like your layout with the DP too. There are some US birds I would love to get to see in real life some time.
