Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge entry - Theme: Anything Goes!

Hello (:

This week over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog, the theme is Anything Goes, which can feature Stampendous products if you have them and want to use them. I delved into my stamp collection and found these beautiful cardinal birds.

I wasn't sure how best to colour them, but decided on using my Spectrum Noir markers. The male cardinal was quite easy to do, all that stunning vibrant red! I used some purple on him too, to pick out his darker areas. The female was trickier, but I think she turned out ok :) I also highlighted some of the feathers with a gold Posca pen. We don't have cardinal birds in the UK, sadly. But we do have robins, who are very much our avian symbol of Winter and Christmas!

Still feels a little early to be making Christmas cards, but you gotta do, what you gotta do! It'll be upon us in no time!

Hope you enjoy this card :)

Products I used:

Jumbo Cardinals by Stampendous - It's an old stamp I believe, but here's a link to a site that is still selling it.

Yuletide by Kaisercraft (Christmas sentiments) unfortunately discontinued!
