Thanks for Being You Rainbow Birds ~ HSS485, FF0206, JAI782


Hello friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #485.  I'm throwing it back to this wonderful stamp set called Free As A Bird.  I thought the long branch with the birds on it would work nicely with the sketch.  I'm also playing along with Just Add Ink #782 and I chose to use Twine & Rhinestones (gems).  I also grabbed some inspiration from Festive Friday's National Unicorn Day challenge #206.  I used bright colors, watercolor, and sparkle gems.  
For the watercolor, I used the no-line watercolor technique.  I painted with my aqua-painter and a plethora ink pads in colors of the rainbow.  Because all the color is concentrated in the center of the card, I added a bit of texture to the white background using my Tasteful Textiles EF for extra interest.
I also used my dark Cloud Cover Blend Marker to splatter some subtle specks on the main panel.


Here's a list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Free As A Bird
Ink: Pecan Pie, Smokey Slate, Basic Beige, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Azure Afternoon, Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo, and Pool Party; Dark Cloud Cover blends

 Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
Jenny
