House Sparrow, I think!!!
This is an image I purchased on Etsy to color. In the past I have been questioned if this was legal. I contacted the store owner. She said it can be reproduced. I can color it and sell items made using her images. I just cannot sell or give away the original image.
I believe this is a House Sparrow. I colored the image with Copic markers, Prismacolor pencils, and pastels. The paper is from Stampin' Up. The lace i have had for years. The sentiment is a stamp form Lili of the Valley.
Sweet Dreams
This image is called "Sweet Dreams." It is by Mariola Budek. I love her images and haven't colored one in quite a while. It is available in her Etsy shop. I colored the image with Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils. I decided to make it "Welcome Baby" card, although it would make a great card for a slightly older adopted baby. It reminds me of my three kids who were all little blondies.
Colorful Scene Lighthouse
This card was made with the new Stampin' Up set "Scenic Coast." I absolutely love the papers for the collection. It really saves a lot of cardmaking time.

Hummingbird Sympathy Card
This is the next in the series of bird cards that I'm working on. I purchased the set of digital images from Etsy. I am really enjoying working with them. I colored this image with Copic markers, Polychromos pencils and pastels. The paper is from Stampin' Up
Ukelele with Flowers
I thought it might be fun to color this picture...it was not. It took four days and it was a monster to color. I'm not really happy with some of the color choices I made. At least I didn't tear it in half and toss it which I usually do when I'm not fond of my artwork. Hopefully, it grows on me. I colored it with Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils.
Scarlet Macaw
This is the next in my bird series, a Scarlet Macaw. I am not really pleased with this one, but decided not to redo it. I'm fine with the bird itself, but I don't like my choice for the flower color and paper. I feel I should have used a brighter color for the flowers to have more of the intensity of the color of the bird. Oh, well! I colored the image with Copic markers and pastels.
Hairy Woodpecker
This is a very strange-named bird, indeed! I bought a set of 40 bird images on Etsy and I am slowly working my way through them. They are not named so I need to do research to figure out what they are. I found the top of this bird's head to be very interesting. It kind of has a corn on the cob look to it, but black. Interesting bird! I colored the image with Copic markers, Prismacolor pencils and pastels.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Red-Headed Woodpecker
This is a Red-Headed Woodpecker. I colored hum with Copic markers, Prismacolor pencils and Pastels. The papers are from Stampin' Up.
Nautical Cards
These two cards were made using the Spellbinder's sets, Guiding Light, Set Sail, Fair Winds Sentiments and Fair Winds stencils for background. I used Distressed inks for the background.
