I used a cuddlebug again for the background and I "dry" painted with some cotton from creatix paint in pink amd chameleon green. I used the cuddlebug again for the flower edges the pink centre and the green centre piece. I highlighted the centre with the bird freed from it's cage. I then shifted through...patiently..the tiny crystals i have for light green and light pink and added them at last. As a final note...I chose the bird free from its cage as a bit symbolic. It is funny that yesterday I wrote that life can change in a instant. Last night I heard absolutley dreadful news about a lady I have met 4 times through my best friend. I will not share details but one should pray for this lady as she is now in the burn unit in Toronto fighting for her life. Her husband and 2 children are trying their best to cope. The bastard who did this to her has been caught and is in jail. It is truly horrific and so the bird, to me, represents freedom and it can sing as loud as it wants. The pretty colours are for purity and friendship and love. I think that says all. Sorry for the downer news...
