For the main image panel I used some watercolor paper and swiped Fired Brick, Spiced Marmalade, and Wild Honey across it, blending them to make the sunset. I don't have a grey stain yet so I just used some ink from my ink pad and a waterbrush to finish off the sky. I love how it turned out. :-)
The mountains are an image from AnnieJDesigns which can be found in the CYDI store. I printed them out to the size I needed for the card and then cut them out. The little owl can also be found in the store. His name is Ben and he's from Dana's Digital Cafe. I colored him with Copics and popped him up on foam for some dimension. I just printed some stars out on my computer and made the moon from a circle punch.
Pop on over to the blog and play along. Everybody has something birdie in their stash.
Have a great Tuesday!
