This is "Cardinal Couple".
I was looking through my digital stamps and came upon this image which I do not think I have used before. It is so cute, it yanks on my heart, so of course I had to colour it up.
For my paper layers I used Gina K Designs cardstock in Red Hot and Sea Glass along with Taylored Expressions Guava.
The Copic colours are E70, E71 and R32 for Bird; R46 for Cardinal; the bowls are R27, R29, BG53, BG57; YR23, YR24, E47 and G94.
I also added black hightlights to the Cardinal along with a few more layers of the red to deepen the colours. For the birds feet I used YR23.
When colouring the berries I left white bits for highlights, which I also did for the leaf branches.
Using a stamp from Paper Rose I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment using Pinkfresh Ink in Candy Apple red.
For the inside of the card I stamped a second sentiment, again from Paper Rose, where I also used the Candy Apple red ink.
