There is a gentlemen in our church that is going through some very rough health troubles right now and I wanted to let him know he is in my prayers.
I used a wooden bird for my main focus, I decided to give him a little sparkle and color with my Sparkle marker and it was now way to dark instead of too light, so I quickly rubbed the marker off before it all soaked into the wood and thought the uneven look gave it a good textured feeling, so I stuck with that.
I used some strips of of paper to make up the background and inked around them. the border of the tag was made using a border punch and after adding the sentiment I felt it needed a little more so I added some dots with my fine tip pen and then inked around the whole tag and card.
- Ms. Sparkle & co. - Wood Veneers, colored w/Spectrum sparkle marker in Earth color, then partially wiped off
- Inkessentials - enamel accents in black for eyes
- Basic Grey - Porcelain Papers
- Martha Stewart - Border punch
- Inky Antics - Simple sentiments stamp
- Pen dots
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie

That bird is amazing! I'm thinking it looks like an owl. I love how it turned out with your partially rubbed off sparkle pen. You backed it up with the perfect papers, too. Your gentleman friend will be touched that you thought of him.
