Bird in the Sky

Hi all. Wow, 3 cards in 3 days..... gee, put the flags out. I coloured Tilda's clothes with Sakura Gelly Roll pens. Yes, you heard correct. They watercolour beautifully and leave a real shimmer. If you click on the photo you might see that gorgeous sparkle. If not, trust me, they are gorgeous. Try it and let me know what you think. Dont colour directly onto paper, put the colour down first onto a piece of acetate or something and pick up the colour from there. Have fun!!! Sorry folks, I have just edited this so that I can add something. I cannot get the shimmer to show up on the photo. Even enlarging the photo doesnt help. Give it a go and see for yourself.

  7. The card is beautiful. While I cannot really see the shimmer, I have a lot of the Gelly Roll pens and will give this a try. I love all the blues with that little hint of coral/pink in the rose. Who is the maker of the sentiment stamp? Beautiful, beautiful card.
