Hi my friends, it's been heartbreaking to watch the Russian invasion of Ukraine, man's inhumanity to his fellow man and the senseless loss of so many innocent lives is beyond my comprehension. I pray with all my heart that good will prevail over evil and this horrendous nightmare will soon be over for the Ukranian people. I'm sharing a card I made to show support for Ukraine, using the colours of their national flag.
I trimmed Distress Watercolor card to 3.3/4" x 5", coloured with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink and added splatters of Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide ink.
I die-cut Simon Says Etched Berry Branch from Distress Watercolor card and fixed to the panel using Distress Collage Medium Matte.
I die-cut Simon Says Layered Chick-a-dee from Distress Watercolor card and coloured with Mustard Seed and Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide inks, assembled, the beak and eye die cut from black card, added Glossy Accents and fixed to the panel with foam adhesive.
I applied Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide ink through Simon Says Peace Joy Love Hope Stencil and added two extra die-cut leaves to create dimension.
To finish I matted the panel on to a Simon Says Soft Navy Cardstock A2 card blank.
