It is the most difficult thing to name my cards. I never have any idea what name to use. This image is from Mariols Budek on Etsy. After my last image in pencil I have been dying to try coloring braided hair. I used Prismacolor pencils to color this image. I am having the time of my life with this type of coloring. I must admit, I had no clue what kind of bird this was or how to color it so I did look at images on Pinterest and found one colored by Joyce Christian Ferrone. My bird is very similar to hers, but mine is a bit darker. I thought it only fair that I give her credit for the bird.
I designed this card for The Outlawz Crash Your Stash Challenge for Sept-Oct. The challenge this time is to use old paper or silk flowers out of your stash. You cannot purchase anything to use for the challenge. Everything must be from your stash. One great surprise from my stash was the gold corners. I don't even remember buying them. I needed something for the corners so I decided to look through my trinkets and there they were. I love them!
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Outlawz Crash Your Stash - Silk or Paper Flowers

Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday - Things with Wings
Little Red Wagon - Nature, Flora, Fauna

How stunning this is! I was so impressed by your coloring of the woman's hair and then reading it is by pencil, I am even more impressed. What a fabulous job you've done on this card. I think the bird and berries are just wonderful, too!
