I AM ALSO SUBMITTING THIS CARD TO ANOTHER MOXIE FAB CHALLENGE

yes-yes...of course i did the coloring, and i do not even own any copics yet. (wink-wink)

the love birds image is just right down my alley, i mean backyard. i have so many different birds living around  us and i feed them year around.. not all come during winter but starting early spring, oh my!

i used three different color markers for the leaves.

and a few more colors for the birds. i tried my best to blend the colors and i am very satisfied with the results.

i even used my old decorative scissors to cut around the sentiment frame.
