I watercolored my background swiping in inks on foil. This was put behind my circle die.
The birds were cut away from Penny Black's stamp, The Sweetest Sound, (not using the rest of the image). The branches were added and I used a small eraser from my lead pencil to dip in my ink pad for the berries/leaves.
I was expecting my background to have more blue but now I think it looks like a rain forest.

Wow, your birds are absolutely gorgeous Benzi, so beautifully coloured!!
Our birds are in full tweet ready for spring, just wish they'd tell the weather to sort itself out!

Oh, how I love this one Benz. You know birds are dear to my heart. I have the last bird card you sent me - the water colored one - in my family room next to the French doors that open up to my bird feeders! This does look like a rain forest. I was thinking that when I first saw it. I love the bird images. You did a fantastic job! Hmm....my b/day in Sept...
