Friend

A Flourished Friend Card! I used my new Fiskars round circle decorative punch on Prism Nautical blue paper to adhere my bird and birdcage stamped image. The images are from Flourishes Love Nest set. All card stock papers are Prism with the exception of the white which is Papertreyink Stampers Select white cardstock.
The Friend sentiment is from Flourished Words. All images colored with Koh I Noor woodless pencils and blended with odorless turpenoid and stumps. After placing the color and blending, I went in with an art white eraser to highlight the face and belly. The ribbon matches this Prism paper perfectly. Adhesive gem is found here. The round scallop blue cardstock piece is mounted on foam pieces, raising it off the yellow cardstock to allow more see through of the edging.
Hope you are having a great weekend, friend! Thanks for stopping by!
