This is my card for the ABC double challenge "K" and kagu. I didn't know what a kagu was so I googled it and found several photos. I loved one photo where the two birds seemed to be kissing, so I decided to try and draw it.
I drew the birds and then colored them with Copic markers. I added crystal lacquer to their tiny eyes.
I used to draw a lot way back when (over 40 years ago) and decided to try my old retired hand at it again.
LOL
I embossed some blue gray card stock and layered the verse and birds, then put on black with a silver ribbon and punched hearts on each side of saying, adding silver glitter to hearts.

I am sooo impressed with this gorgeous card! Your drawing skills are impressive and not one bit rusty either! I love the subtle coloring you did of these glorious birds. Great use of color on this card, and nice use of the trim too. ~Karen.

I'm so impressed by what you have done with your artistic abilities here! Beautifully colored and hand drawn Kagus and oh so cute~ Maybe you should design stamp images.....just a thought.
