A FUN Card!!

....Today is another gorgeous day and I just LOVE the sunshine and nice warm air. Hopefully, we will not have to turn our heat back on, but you never know for sure!!
  After taking a day off, today I am back to working on cards for challenges and also working on my coloring practice for my classes. Today, I worked on a card for two challenges. The first challenge is over at "The Pink Elephant" and it's the NATURE Challenge and this is my card that I'm submitting to the challenge.   I wanted am image of a "bird" as I always think of Spring, when I hear the birds singing in the morning and now that we have the windows opens again, that nice sound is back.

    My little bird "Tweet" is a bit whimsical, and that is one think I really liked about this image.  I also thought it would work out well for this week's Color Combo Challenge over at the Simply Scrapping Crafts challenge blog.  The colors for this challenge were bright blue, green and purple and I think this card will work out well for both challenge!!   I think "Tweet" is meant to be "dressed" in bright colors and he also  makes a nice "Nature" card.  He also happens to come from from of my favorite digi stamp lines and that is  Pink Cat Studio.  

    Off now to work on my "homework" for my Copic Color-Me Class and also for "The Color Craze II" class.    It's ALL coloring and perfect for me!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
