Gorgeous card love the scene and image x
A lovely scene. Thanks for joining Aud Sentiments challenge. Elaine
This is such a lovely scene, Shell. The cormorant is in such a classic pose, I like them, too - as a birdwatcher I always enjoy being able to recognise a gorgeous bird straight off! They are unmistakeable!
I hope the new job is going well and that you'll soon settle into a happy routine.
much love, Maggie xxx
Hi, Shell! It's a beautifully colored creation. I'm always amazed when seeing the cormorants holding their outstretched wings like that. They stay for hours, getting thoroughly dried out so their feathers can do more diving for their food. The details in your image are lovely! So happy I saw your pretty card at Lavinia World Challenges >. Hope to see more of your creations in the future.
Smiles,
