Rose Bloom

This is Rose Bloom by Just Inklined I love this trio of roses, it reminds me of the rose bowl that used to sit on my Auntie's coffee table.
Coloured with Copic markers and teamed with DCWV designer papers.


Now that I have you all in the nature feeling here is a couple of photo's took of our beautiful feathered friends.

These are the little friends that pop into next doors garden for a feed, I commented to my husband just how beautiful they are and his reply was you won't be saying that when you see all the little parcels they have left on the car. Urghhhh!



This one is a beauty, just look at the red crest on it's head.

Gorgreous colours you have used on the roses Jak, i love them. Love the backing paper you have chosen to go with it too.
The picures of the birds is lovely and love how you have managed to catch the open wings of one of the birds.
You are right on the single bird his red head is beautiful.

yes those are finches cant remember which breed though, i used to keep finches, the single bird could very well be the male
and the pic above shows the not so colourfull female.

Hi Jak, very pretty card.

The birds are Goldfinches, I get them in my garden too, they sit on my washing line.

Yes indeed - it is a Goldfinch that looks very different from our Goldfinch in the US.

gorgeous card as always Jak, i wish you would do coloured images as i am useless at colouring the images and never look anything like yours. May be something to think about as i have bought coloured images off other sites in the past.
Great photo's of the finches

I really love the pics of those birds too, I like looking at the wild birds feed in my garden too, but I only see Sparrows, Starlings, Tits & that gorgeous Robin. xx
