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.

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!]

Oh I love those PB chickadees! They were a fave and many people were sad when they were discontinued. I love how you used them in your sketch and not surprised your card was a Princess pick! Congrats!
