Christmas Bird

This is my second attempt with this image.  The first time I forgot that I wasn't supposed to be using red or green!

I am entering my card into the following challenges:
Opal Manor - Christmas but No Red or Green
http://opalmanor.com/challenges/

I have used a paper from a paper pad (can't remember which one now as I started this card over a week ago!).  The image is from Opal Manor and coloured with copic markers.  The matting is blue cardstock.  I have also added a blue organza ribbon.

I found a couple of new challenges that I hadn't entered before and decided to combine them for this card - except I just checked the rules for one of them and I wasn't supposed to use red!  Oh well, looks like I'll be using this image again!!

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

The image comes from Opal Manor as a freebie for the challenge that I was going to enter!  The background paper is from MME - Mistletoe Magic.  I have coloured the image using copic markers R59, R46, BG23, BG15, BG72.  I have added a designer brad from Rosie's Studio.  I actually went in to the shop to buy printer ink but saw these gorgeous brads and just had to have them!  There are 21 different ones in the pack.
