There are a couple of bird stamps that I reach out a lot. For a Christmas card, this one from Close to My Heart To You and Yours stamp set is by far the most popular one. I like to play coloring with it. I usually color it with watercolor pencils, or sometimes just color pencils. I have yet mastered coloring with markers, but I secretly play with them often to practice.
Today's card is based on the sketch from
Mojo Monday:
I set my heart on making a Christmas card then I saw this requirement from
Merry Monday:
So I added the bird to the sketch:
I like this card and I just had a lot of fun coloring the bird.
I'm afraid it's time to treat my eyes again so I have to stop here. Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
beautiful card, so glad you played along with us at Mojo Monday!
