Before I get on with my post, I must say that Eclipse was a GREAT movie!! I LOVED it!!Both Edward and Jacob looked even better than the first 2 movies, which makes it hard to choose who you like better...especially for those who need to be on Team Edward or Team Jacob.
I really need to see this movie again before it comes out on DVD!! I really want to get into the details of the movie but don't want to ruin it for those of you who have not seen it yet. But, if you'd really like more details on it, we will be updating the Pocket Edward blog soon!!
It's the 1st of the month and that means it's time for a NEW challenge with Copic Creations!! This week our sponsor is Tiffany of Tiffany Doodles. She provided the DT images of birds.
The image I chose is called Red Bird. I've never colored a bird that had realistic features, I usually color the more "cute" type. So, I was really nervous coloring this image but think that he turned out ok. I love a challenge!
When piecing my card together I wanted to be sure the image stood out well so I used papers and embellishments that were not at all red. I was able to find neutral colors in various shades of brown. Last but not least, I airbrushed the sky.I hope you will join us for the challenge, you will have until July 14th to participate!! Have a wonderful day everyone!!
Head on over to Andrea's blog, she is giving away some awesome candy!!

Gorgeous bird and card Jodi! I saw Eclipse yesterday and LOVED it!!! Much better than the last 2, I'm Team Edward all the way, but I actually felt for Jacob in this one (just a little though, lol). I hope to see it again this next week! I didn't say that about the last 2 movies. ;) ~hugs
