I am so excited about this new Sherri Baldy's My Besties Wee One Digi..she is so wonderful!
As soon as Sherri released this image and shared it on her Facebook page, i instantly wanted to color it. I have to be honest, like with most of my coloring, this image took on a life of it's own. It isn't what i had envisioned. I was thinking more woodsy looking, and as i started to color, i started thinking winter...and then i ended up with neither and a whole new color scheme of Copics that i had not combined before, especially the wings. Oh yeah, and i thought i was going to Fran-tage the wings but liked them so well, i left them alone.
So here she is..and i made her into an Easel card too! She is img0003.
Here is my card closed:
