I discovered a new artist whilst on holiday in UK. I went a wee bit mad and bought a few things. These pheasants are by that artist, namely Hannah Dale. She makes the most beautiful watercolour paintings of British wildlife.

METHOD: The pheasants are Jpegs so I put them onto Multiply blending mode so it would show things through underneath. I added a splatter brush from my stock. I took both templates and imported them as 2 groups then re-arranged the stains and re-coloured them. I moved the button and the thread. Imported the Urban Stitchez no 11 and added to the bottom of the frame. I flipped the stitches then added some more (the holes). I recoloured the 'thread' and went over the shadow and holes with desaturate sponge. Added the art srokes from APP Whimsy and the tape (a brush). Added the [perfect] word art "Game on" but selected the "on" and moved to the side of rather than underneath "Game". I added the Watercolour Feathers and moved around. The final touch was the Light Leaks. I added 3 of them and blended accordingly (video tutorial coming soon).
NB: Some elements have been recoloured and/or blended
