Today I was inspired to make something that reflects my feelings in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan.  I don't have anyone in particular to send it to – but it helps to make something to work out the feelings sometimes.

Ink/Copic:

• BG70 for the Sky, with a bit of Weathered Wood Distress Ink brought in along the edges
• R35, W5, E30 for the birds
• YG61/YG63 for the leaves
• E23/E81 for the trees
• Y21 for the sun
• RV63 for the cherry blossoms
• Stamped in Bamboo Leaves ink by Momento
• Multiliner in black to add details to the birds
• Shimmerz Vibez in Pop Art Pink added to the cherry blossoms

Papers:

• Handmade paper in green
• Junkitz from my stash for the background paper
• Prima Journal card for the asian tea lady

Stamp:

• Rubbernecker, Spring Panel 438 SO – http://www.rubbernecker.com/p-1466-asian.aspx

Embellishments

Sending my love to those injured, displaced and affected by the recent natural disasters in Japan.
