Bluebird Couple!

Hey Friends! How was everyone's Valentines Day? I hope you all enjoyed the day and got a little spoilt. Ours was a quiet one, pretty much just a normal day really, but hey spending time together is really what it is all about isn't?

So today I wanted to share a card with you that happens to be a new digital image that will be released into Tiffany Doodles store this Friday, there will be sneak peeks of these cards along the way this week, make sure to check out the blog.


I always feel that colouring these images in are never my strong point, but I actually thoroughly enjoyed the process.

I took the Bluebird Couple image resized and printed out onto some white card stock, colouring the image in with my Copics and trimming down to fit onto some trimmed black card stock. Next, taking the Envelope Pattern stamp from Hero Arts, I inked up with Frost White Ink and stamped the front of a trimmed Kraft card. Adhering the Bluebird Couple to the front of the card using foam dimensionals and lastly trimming white card stock to stamp a sentiment from the Hero Arts, Essential Messages stamp set, adhering this also to the card.

I haven't had much time to just sit and colour these days and I have to say that colouring this sweet image in, I have missed it some, so I am heading into the craft room to do a little more colouring now.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your day!

Hugs
