Hello Winter

Hi everyone!

ATC Around the World is looking for Winter Birds.

Here's what I came up with.

There was that sheet of paper from a failed alcohol ink experiment that had been lying around in my stash ages. I almost threw it away, but I kept thinking that maybe it would be useful for something someday. 

While rummaging around for the winter bird challenge, my gaze fell on the messed-up sheet again. I immediately noticed that the blue spots looked like birds! So the idea was to stamp birds on the spots, and I found two matching ones right away!

I colored a few areas, such as the wings, bellies, and beaks, with acrylic paints and alcohol ink markers. Colored the lower part of the ATC with white acrylic paint to depict snow. Stamped small dots on the right edge and then splattered white ink onto the ATC.

Finally, I stamped the word “Winter” and tore it along the outline. I wanted it to look like a big, fluffy snowflake. LOL  I glued it on and then stamped the word “Hello” on top.

Can you see the two birds too?

Thanks for stopping by!
