Joy Bird Sketch

This bird is from the Our Daily Bread designs set called You will find Refuge, and patsmethers does such beautiful things with this I finally caved and bought one for me. along with its die, but this one was cut out with scissors and I did just the bird and its foot on the branch. not the whole side branch and berries. so, this is a first attempt at coloring it ( copic's ) just winging it, I had some really beautiful pins on pinterest saved of bird images to use as coloring guides but, this is just off the top of my head. I did stamp it twice and cut the bird out with scissors to layer to the other for just some slight dimension. there is a layer of pop dots between the bottom bird layer and the cream pp layer.
the joy to you is an justrite sentiment from the charming christmas set, done on a scrap tag die cut, trimmed off the bottom with mini pinking shears and inked all the edges with creamy brown chalk ink.
So, its using the splitcoaststampers sketch sc377 the cream and blue pp are from an MME 6" pad, the crackle pp is from sweetwater, the copper shimmer texture cs under that is from Provocraft. the wide sheer copper ribbon's unknown { bought it in the cut it by the yard thing at Joann's years ago) the layers are machine stitched.
