Bluejays get a "bad rap", but they are beautiful just the same. The Bluejay Set from Doodle Pantry is one of this month's New Releases. I used copics, but it also comes pre-colored...isn't that great!
My pine trees mesh with other trees in my yard so I thought this combo would give the card a little extra dimension. I chose not to emboss the brown cardstock for extra texture; I was worried that it would look too busy.

You did a fantastic job coloring the bluejay - it looks so real! I really like your color combo, too, and the flowers and branches are perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I love Bluejays. They come visit my yard too.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning Cely!!! I put out peanuts in the shell for my bluejays. And when the dish is empty, they sit on my deck and squack up a storm until I fill it back up. I love 'em.

Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous Cely! Love how you framed the blue jay. I lvoe watching them out at our other property. There seem to be more of them around this year. Thanks for sharing this lovely card!
ReplyDeleteCely, I chuckled when I read Blue Jays get a bad rap - that they have with my youngest son because he got pecked on the head by one. =) Such a beautiful card. They are a beautiful bird you are so right!

ReplyDeleteOh wow such a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteCely, this is so gorgeous. I love your frame around this perfectly colored image. Our bluejays are trained, lol, they come for the leftover cat food that my husband throws outside each morning.
ReplyDeleteCely - the embellishments in the corner really compliment this Blue Jay in so many ways = a very lovely card.
ReplyDeleteI just got this set, Cely. What an inspiration I got from your card! Just printed out the image and will have to see what I can manage. I may have to CASE the hexagon -- I really like that.
ReplyDeleteCely - love the card, particularly the colors!
