Noel Trio

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

These three hadn't made an appearance yet this year.

I thought they would work well with Linda's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.


I stamped each one with Copic friendly ink and colored them with Copics sticking to mainly
browns to honor all those LBJs (Little Brown Jobs) that feed in our yard.

They are perched on a holly branch and welcoming some snow.

Some homemade Flower Soft, made by rubbing two Styrofoam balls together, added
some fluff to their caps.

Challenges:
Freshly Made Sketches #710 - Sketch by Linda
Jingle Belles - Dashing Through the Snow
Penny Black Saturday  - ATG using Penny Black

Stamps:  Winter Wonderland (PB), Many Merry Messages (ret SU)
Ink:   Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper:   Neenah Solar White
Other:  Kars Snowflake EF (ret CB), Holly Vine die (ret MB), Copics (E01, E11, E33, E23, E25, G24, Gr6, R29, R37), White Gel Pen

I am so very happy that this trio of tweeties came out to play again, Bonnie! They are truly the sweetest and perfect for Linda's sketch! The embossed snow is great and homemade flower soft is just the best finishing touch! [you always teach me something!]

These are the "tweetest" singing birds. Love their hats and snowy look. I haven't thought of Flower Soft in years and I wonder where mine went.
