| | Used a brayer with "Soft Sky" on the embossing folder to get a colored background behind the trees. Used SU! watercolor pencil "balmy blue" on the outside edges of the bird and blended with a water brush (if you do this on watercolor paper it won't curl as much when it dries), then went over it again with a blue color pencil and lightly colored the chest, beak, and feet with an orange color pencil. Balloon was blended with Stampin' Blends. Everything is pretty straightforward and easy, but gave it a 2 because of the braying - it can take a little practice. |
