Happy new year, Christine! Keeping my fingers crossed that this virus doesn't throw us a curve ball, but I have hopes that things will get better. A beautiful card for ringing in the new year!

I love that sweet little bird Christine, looks like a sparrow, and the fireworks going off in the background which looks great in the different blues and love that touch of pink in the bottom right hand corner. Hope you had a good Christmas Christine and that the new year will be a better one for us all. x

Happy Better New Year to you Christine! I just love this bird and the wonderful fireworks above her! The colors in your background are beautiful! xx

Happy new year to you too Christine! This card is a fabulous way to celebrate! The bird is wonderful with the subtle colour on its feathers and I love your glorious background. Thanks for the laugh you gave me today, describing the 'Golden rolling frenzy'. Of course that is a technical term and describes Eva's antics perfectly!! Vicky x

WOW! You did a magnificent job coloring that bird! The colors are so natural. That background is perfect for New Years too! I still cannot seem to get notifications and only found this since I saw your comment elsewhere. Glad I stopped by though and didn't miss this.

Beautiful card! Love how you colour that bird to give it so much dimension. So realistic I feel I could reach out and grab it!
Here’s to a better year... happy new year!

But a nice idea for this New Year's card. A beautiful background, a wonderful bird and such a beautifully decorated sky by a cornucopia of fireworks. I love this project.
