I have been itching to color these “Birds of Paradise” from My Favorite Things and I was happy to find a little time to color . It’s all about finding a little time for you and I hope that you are feeling successful with that “me time”. If you are one of those people hesitating to join the challenge ….. come on I know you can do it.:) Â Put on some music and take a few deep breaths and just start.

Glad you had a fun day at the birthday party.
I love these birds…have been eyeing them. Love the colors you selected for coloring them. Beautiful.
Please show pics and tell stories of your trip to NY for ME Birthday Party. Thanks
LOVE your pretty tropical birds!! They look great!!! I think you should come to Vermont to see the beautiful foliage and while you are here you can stop by for dinner!! 🙂
The stripes are cool, but it’s their cute little spotted tummies that I adore! : )
Gorgeous silly birds!

Oh, Valerie! I’m so happy you figured out how to link up to the color challenge from Instagram. Is there any chance you could help this computer challenged person figure out how to link up to the challenge? So far, my pics of my coloring are on my Kindle Fire. I am stumped as what to do next. My email is ls4atwindstreamdotnet. Thanking you in advance for your help.
Brilliant and beautiful! Jo x

Love the sweet birds. What a sweet idea adding the stripes. So, so cute. Have a Great Day!
Fantastic colors love the stripes and lashes adds that extra Kathy touch. So glad you had a great time in NY at Mama Elephants BDay celebration
Just so cute!
You are so clever, Kathy! I love the stripes and your color combo is fabulous! Thanks for sharing the Copic colors with us!
So glad you had a great time at the Mama Elephant B-Day party! I’ll bet everyone was thrilled to meed ‘You’ 🙂
How fun! Love those pretty colours and stripes. This week has been crazy. I barely managed to take a little time to create a background using a stencil and a dauber. I’m hoping I will be able to sit down and colour a bit this week. But now it’s off to bed, after doing my exercises for my frozen shoulder…
Happy you had a good time at the ME party.

The shading on their bellies and the stripes on their tails are great! Such great coloring!
So sweet!
I was thinking the same thing someone else said ” Does this girl EVER sleep” LOL, You are amazing girl, please tell me what is your secret ??? I REALLY need to know. I don’t work, I don’t have children and I don’t have HALF the energy you got girl !! like I have said a million times ” you ROCK “.
I have been doing some coloring myself Kathy. I bought a coloring book and have been having fun coloring up the images in it. Thanks for the inspiration to just do it.
Your birds are so cute! I love the stripes!
I just love the speckles you put on their chests.
Oh my gosh! I love what you did with those birds! They are so colorful! So much has happened this weekend and it’s all stamp related. We went to see an amazing corn maze and on the way is a shop that sells things I guess on consignment. They had antiques and stuff like that & a whole 6 shelves of Stamping’ Up stamps! They had a bunch of things in front of the shelves for sale too so I couldn’t look at all the stamps that they had and good thing too or we would probably still be there! LOL I only looked at what I could reach. They had stamp pads too but since I couldn’t try any of them out, I didn’t buy any. They had the deckled edged scissors but you had to buy the whole set. I only wanted the ones I didn’t have. There were so many stamp sets that this person must have been a demonstrator. Her loss, my gain! The prices she had on stuff was unreal! Boy did I get some deals! I bought a white cotton table runner for $2 that I will stamp on and a very pretty tea cup with daffodils on it. No one drinks tea but I will do a craft with it or just display it because it is so pretty. On the way home we stopped at a store I have only heard about on the news, Hobby Lobby. All their Christmas crafts were 40% off Guess who is going to have the most amazing Christmas cards in the country this year? Me! I love Hobby Lobby! It’s on the other side of CT which is why I have never visited before but my sister did once. Yesterday my Copics came in but because I wasn’t home to get the mail yesterday I got them today. Boy, did I have an amazing weekend! Oh yeah, we didn’t get lost in the corn maze either! LOL
Thank goodness you didn’t get lost in the corn maze or you wouldn’t have scored so many goodies. You had the perfect day. All your goodies will keep reminding you of your super fun day. 🙂
Love your birdie’s pink, speckled bellies! Your colouring is amazing.
Love your copic coloring so much!!!
What FUN 🙂
Loving your stripes, dots and “eyelashes”!!!
I’ve been playing with my white pens too.
These birds are so fun! 😀
I am so happy I stumbled upon this place. It’s surely a heaven for stampers.
Welcome. I’m thrilled you stumbled across my challenge. This coloring challenge is for you! We all need to make time for ourselves. Color your World. 🙂
Fabulous birds and love your perfect coloring and ideas!
Hi Kathy! How did you do the speckles on their bellies? Phenomenal coloring!
Amazing, you are SO talented, your colouring is fantastic!
I giggle every time I see any one of your critters with a pink belly!!! It is such a Kathy signature that I look forward too!! These birds are great!!!!
I just received my set of birds and I am really excited about trying them. I love the colors you used. Thanks for sharing.
