 My wild card features this "wild" bird from MFP 
PUSSY WILLOWS set

I had so much fun with this set yesterday, I wanted to play with it again for today. I hope you don't mind another sweet little wild bird card. Like yesterday I stamped the bird and branch onto white cardstock. I colored the beak and the branch with markers and I fussy cut it out. I glued litle styrofoam balls to the branch. Today I decided to color the bird brown. One of my favorite parts of today's cards is the little bird's eye. I took hot glue and made a little dot. I took a black sharpie marker and colored it black. I took white acrylic paint to add the highlight. 

I made my card a gate fold card. For my mixed media, I choose to go for texture. I added lace, pearls, cheese cloth, ribbon, the styrofoam, the hot glue eye, the acrylic painted dot. I used distressed ink on inside and black stazon ink on outside.


 I used MFP LOTS OF WORDS set for the sentiment on the inside.
