The scan doesn't give this card justice, it's so pretty in real life. I've finally made one that I truly find beautiful. As my daddy would say on one of our fishing trips, "it's a keeper". This card is for today's color challenge. After I stamped the birds with StazOn, I used a liquid mask and painted over them, once that was dry I did the background. Then I peeled the liquid mask off and painted the birds. I took the Close to Cocoa SU Marker and colored over the Old Olive Ink on the Bamboo stamp on the sides of the bamboo stalks for just a subtle hint of brown in the bamboo. This challenge was so much fun.

Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
