Things with Wings




Doodle Pantry is a sponsor this  October (the whole month) for the  Corrosive Challenge Blog  and this week  (Oct 16th) the theme is  Things With Wings .  I chose  this parrot beauty from a Doodle Pantry  digital stamp set  called 'Parrot Play' and  the sentiment  is from the same set. The image is coloured with  Prismacolor markers.  Hope you take the time to visit the challenge site and join in!
  

 Remember the Doodle Pantry  Blog October Challenge is still on and you get a free DP stamp for participating. The theme is to just use a DP image:     Doodle Pantry Digital Challenge #17 : Oct 5th -Oct 24th, 2011 

Isn't this parrot a handsome dude! You can make him into any colour combo you like because, if you google parrots, you  find they come in all sots of colours and combinations thereof. Great fun to work with!  I decided to make my card using  fall colours only because it seems to be the colours of choice this time of year:0)

    Beautiful coloring on this parrot image. Card colors are great too, great design. My sister has a parrot that talks up a storm and imitates her grandkids voices, a lot of fun to be around.
