I stamped a Christmas image with squirrels with great bushy tails. But then I started thinking about some of my other stamps of things with tails, like my peacocks. And in the end I got out Henry, even though I already have several thank you cards in stock. I need to send a couple out .
Base is 5 3/4" square. Papers are DCWV Old World stack.
Image stamped on watercolour paper, coloured with re-inkers (all distress inks - Pine Needles, Stormy Sky, Broken China, Faded Jeans, Fired Brick, Scattered Straw, Mustard Seed, Crushed Olive, Vintage Photo, Old Paper), masked and then the sky sponged in. Then I tore a rough mask before stamping the chicken wire with Versafine Black.
Sentiment is Hero Arts, with Kaiser pearls.
And darn, I've forgotten the Glossy Accents on the beak again, just like yesterday. It must be subconscious as I am near the end of the bottle and it's hard to get out...but a new one is on the way.

Henry is so handsome with those very colorful tail feathers. Perfect for the challenge.

What a great design, Sabrina! I love your coloring and masking for the chicken wire. My Glossy Accents is down to the bottom too - last time had to get the bottle open and apply it with the end of an opened paper clip - yes, time for a new one. Very cute card.
