"Surprised Bird on a Floating Branch" Art Journal Card

A quite colourful project from me today - an art journal card I did using rubber stamps, Caran d'Ache watersoluble pencils, Faber Castell PITT artist pens, Brushos, a white Sharpie, a black Stabilo Marks it All and black archival ink.



My bird does not have to fly by itself as the branch it sits on is already floating in the air (taking it to whoknowswhere). As are a lot of bubbles and flowery thoughts filled with good wishes, hopes and moments of joy. The air is also filled with fragments of lost thoughts. Maybe some of them were important, maybe some of them just weren't thought right to the end. Who knows.




I am still in love with the 4x6'' format of the Journal Cards. They are perfect for small and quick mixed media fun projects! ;)




Wishing you all a lovely Sunday!
Hugs and happy crafting,
Claudia

  9. Hi Claudia, loving this design. There is a clever simplicity in the way you have done this card. The little bird looks so relaxed on his branch even though it is floating in mid air which makes the design kind of magical. The colours are perfect for this picture, there is no more to be said other than I love it.

  17. What a superb birdie card, love all the flowery and patterned roundels.
    I like the birdie's mode of transport, a motorised branch.
