Today is your day

Today a sketch tickled my fancy. I stocked up on supplies and new stuff in the sales, so there are some happy stamps, stencils and dies to be played with.

I worked according to the sketch using a new leaf stencil and a very cute - also new - bird stamp. I colored everything in with watercolors and drew around the stenciled leaves, which makes them look like they were stamped. I raised the folklore-inspired bird from the background with foam pads. The sentiment says: Today is Your day.

Entering this in:

and since the bird stamp and leaf stencil are new, also in NBUS: #58 January
