Bluebird of Happiness???



I do not know that much about birds but when I showed my hubby the pic of the bird I found on the net he said it was a bluebird so I am calling this my Bluebird of Happiness!!!

This week at Digi Doodle Shop's Best we are having a color challenge an we have to use 3 colors in our project. Can you take a guess what ones they are??? Blue,  Yellow and Green .

I chose to use Mother Bird and Babies for my stamp and can be picked up at The Digi Doodle Shop! Judy and her Mom are adding new stamps each week.  Just take a look, you will be certain to find a few to tickle your fancy! 


I wanted to give my project a 3 dimensional look so I used some spanish moss for the nest and a few twigs for the branches.  I colored with copics with the following colors: YG03, YG09, E13, Y11, Y15, Y26, Y21, C3, C5, B12, B21, B24, B91, E25.  A few stickles were added to give some sparkle.  I then added a punch by MS and a ribbon and a few feathers that must have fallen from my bird!

So I hope to see you all over at the challenge where you can find all of the details and while you are there check out all of the other DT's work.  You will be blown away!!!

  1. Kym, this is quite lovely. I don't often see birds on cards and I really like this one. I do so enjoy seeing the 3D effect on your cards as they truly bring your images to life. The moss and twigs you added are so cool and the stickles on the leaves really add the dimension and texture to a wonderful masterpiece! :-)
