Tlingit Eagle in Bright Colors

“Tlingit Eagle” is stamped with a black memories pad on white paper. All the white areas are colored with colored pencils and a gold gel pen except the mouth area and the waist which are left white. Colors used are turquoise, jade, violet and yellow. The eagle is cut out and mounted with foam tape on a piece of textured white paper that has been brayered using a rainbow pad and trimmed with deckle edge scissors. That is layered over a piece of turquoise card stock trimmed with deckle edge scissors and layered on yellow card stock. A navy blue frame is cut out and layered to frame the eagle and touch the top and bottom edges of the card. Layering each piece of card stock in an asymmetrical pattern is part of the fun of making this card as it offers an opportunity to have many variations. Card by Margaret Wiggin.
