Inspired by..

Well, not Nature. Even though the stamp set is Inspired by Nature.

I was inspired by this.

Rarity and kinship.

Hope it shows in the cards.After I was done with them, I got kind of piney for those old Audubon style illustrations of things. They had such vivid color and nice detail.

What a cool job Audubon had.

I stamped these in Sahara Sand on white cardstock and then all I did was shade them with a grey pencil. For the two friends, I used colored pencils. Very easy. Not quick, but easy. And nice and relaxing to just spend a little time coloring while the rain falls outside all day.

I was going to add a sentiment, but I thought I'd leave it unspoken.

Off to work. Have a great Saturday!
