This week we are sending a card to Pam showing our favorite technique or style to make cards. Hands down, I love to watercolor. Traced outline with a lightbox of the Eastern bluebird. Watercolored, add splatters and highlighting. Sponged the pumpkin pie with stencil. This fits the color challenge with the colors being a bit more vibrant. Come join the teapotters and send a card to Pam. Fun challenge doing your favorite style. TFL

OH my goodness, Linda. What a beauty this is. Gotta love a bird card, and that looks so soft and downy I want to reach in and stroke it and feel the soft feathers. I like the spatter in matching colours.

You have done an outstanding job on this bird - the variation of color in the feathers is breath-taking. (You are getting really proficient with that lightbox, too!) I like the softly stenciled bg - it completes the scene nicely without detracting from your focal image.
