The image was printed on white cardstock and colored with non-alcohol markers. Three sets of layers were cut from DSP, a ribbon was tied around the layers and the layers were adhered to the card base. The top layers was popped up on craft foam for dimension. A die cut sun was added and also raised to the level of the focal layers.
Black pearls were added for the canary's eyes and white pearls were colored with a yellow alcohol marker then adhered to the flower centers. Clear Wink of Stella was added to the canary and the sun. The inside was lined with a panel of white cardstock decorated with a yellow die cut border.
