Bird Housie


my original idea for this housie was to create a cage look but it was a bit distracting from all the stamping and embossing of the birds.
I used a dark blue sharpie pen on the gold birds to draw in wings and feathers...interestingly the ink sort of sunk into the gold embossing and when you tilt the piece it has a rainbow shimmer to it.
I hope Carol Sweeney enjoys this.
