SNSDC29 A Bird Image

Welcome to another SNSDC where this week we're using a bird image for our cards. I'm using the SNSS digital titmouse image today, and I colored it with Copics. I guess the way I colored the bird looks a little strange, and I don't even have an explanation, other than I simply colored him the way I felt like coloring him :) I used all retired SU colors, papers, and ribbon for this one, and added a SNSS digi sentiment from the helping hand set and added a snippet of ribbon and a pearl. The butterflies were done with a MS punch and the lower panel was embossed with a Swiss Dots ef. The image was cut with a Spellbinders blossom die and sponged with Ranger ink.
If you play along with us, please tag your creations with SNSDC29 when uploading to the galleries.
In addition to the regular monthly challenge prize; during the month of November, one participant, chosen randomly, will receive 4 free digis each week!! You do not have to use SNS digi stamps to play along.
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great weekend!
