This is for a friend who has lung cancer (and it works for the current Doodle Pantry challenge, found here: http://doodlepantryblog.blogspot.com/ ). She owns a couple of parrots but with completely different colouring! I purposely coloured it this way so it isn't confused with 'not quite right'!!
Printed digi image and coloured with prismacolour pencils and blended with OMS. I did a search on the Internet and have discovered that pretty much any colours would work! My co-ordinating papers are unusual for me, but I wanted to make this a cheerful card and they seemed to work together. Sponged the green layer with Ranger distress ink (shabby shutters), sponged the polka dot piece with fired brick and the main image with blue and added fired brick. Added Stickles on the parrot's neck just for some added interest and added the buttons with Glossy Accents. I inserted a sentiment from TLCreations that reads:
"Be The Parrot
Never be afraid to fly . . . Don't worry if you make a mess when you eat, just enjoy your food . . . It's fun to play in water . . . and learn to nap anywhere"
