Hello,
Today is reveal day for the February card chain challenge. I sent my card to Greta in Oregon.
This is what she received:
I used the colour option and the theme option of birds.
The background is blended with distress oxide inks, I masked off the white strip before I started inking and then I stamped the little bird, which is from My Favourite Things, with versamark and heat embossed it in white. The sentiment is from Hero Arts which I also heat embossed onto black card. I drew a fine line at the edge of the ink with a fine liner pen and added the little birds in the sky with an opaque paint pen. I was surprised and quite pleased with how they turned out as I was worried that I would mess it up.
Here is a close up:
I really enjoy this challenge as it is so nice to receive wonderful handmade cards in the post.

Super card Hilary, the little bird is so sweet and the colours are fabulous xx
Love your card so much, Hilary! Great way to use the colours and that little bird is 'tweet' as anything. Thanks for being a link in our chain again, Jo x
What fabulous blending with those wonderful colours on your gorgeous card. Greta's going to love it! x
Your blending is beautiful, and Greta I am sure loved the card.
Who does not want to hold such a beautiful card in their hands? It is not much, but she has a very special charisma.
Beautifully blended and the black sentiment strip adds a wonderful dash of drama - love it!
