robin footprint card

I'm back again with another card I made using MacchiOTTo's foot print. I think these are adorable to send to close family as birthday cards and thank yous. Below is how I turned her foot into a Robin.
I started by painting the bottom of her foot brown with watercolor paints.  Then stamped her foot on a plain white card at a 45 degree angle.

I then took red paint and painted the chest of the bird right up against the arch of the foot print.
Then I took orange paint and drew a beak and legs.
Lastly, with black paint I did a dot for the eye and painted a wing.  I also painted some grass under the birds feet with green paint, but you could also do a tree branch with brown or black paint.
