CCEE1701 Bird Day!

Our hostess for the first month of the new year (can it be 2017 already???) is Vicky Gould.

She loves birds, so her challenge is to show beautiful birds on our cards.  Here ya go, Vicky!


I don't often try my hand at water color, but this image is just so beautiful, I gave it the brush and water.  Because I didn't remove the paint at the end from my craft sheet, I got a few errant marks near the flowers...........so that's why the ribbon is where it is.  Just another opportunity for embellishment!! LOL!

Please join us, and link your card HERE.  See you next week.

Good job with the watercolor, Anne. That is something I just can't get my head (and hand) around. Pretty bow, BTW!
