Well, I can only blame Jenny for this. She makes some gorgeous cards with this bird die, so I had to get my own. She's such an enabler ;)
For my coral panel I covered a piece of mixed media paper with gesso then added Distress Paints (Mustard Seed, Festive Berries) tried ghosting with the leaf stencil and it didn't work, so I sponged Pickled Raspberry over it. I diecut the bird from a Gelli print from my stash ad added a self-adhesive gem for the eye, added some waxed cotton for it to sit on, and made a border from strips of washi tape. I'm entering it into the following challenges:
Mixed Media World - Use Bright Colours
Simon Says Monday Challenge - Don't Abandon The Coral
