SPA-Storks


What a great theme! So specific, but look at all the very different renditions of the bird!

The storks are an illustration by Edward Lear. I found it on a wonderful site called Resuable Art.com. It's full of old illustrations and pictures, all in the public domain. Go visit--you'll be amazed at the treasures to be found!
The background was made with a googled postcard image, a texture piece from UR_2 and a watercolor texture from Joyce's Photo Album at T4L. The rest is blending and brushes.

Thanks for visiting!

    Love your "real" postcard with your gaggle of storks and the beautifully soft muted background.
