Parrot and Butterflies

This digital parrot stamp just calls out to you to add colour to  it and  so I already have another one coloured ( in different tones). It is the perfect parrot to colour,you can do just about  any thing you like and it will look great:). I actually googled  parrots and found them in every colour of the rainbow and every combination therein. Isn't nature grand!

 Anyhow,  I  decided to use this parrot for the challenge  Doodle Pantry  is sponsoring over at Creative Card Challenges . Their theme this week is buttons and bling.

Card details:
Stamp - digital stamp  from a Doodle Pantry set called 'Parrot Play'
