I have been so afraid to use this image. It's smaller than my comfort size, but since it was a gift from Whim6915, aka christine, I decided I needed to give it a try.
This image has been colored with reinkers; a first for me too. As you can see, I need lots more practice until I can color life my sweet friend, Snail, aka Linda.
Thanks Christine for this sweet image.

You did an awesome job with the reinkers, Anne!! That is a medium I haven't yet tried - still trying to master Prismacolors and Copics. Your card is just lovely and elegant - and the image very pretty!

Oh you crazy lady, you colored this just fine. Aren't re-inkers fun! Love this little birdie with the ornaments on his tiny tail. What a very whimsical yet elegant card that only you can do. Love it! TFS :0)

I think this is a marvelous coloring job, Anne!! You are gonna catch up to Snail pretty soon at that rate!! Soft colors and a lovely choice of gingham to go with - can't ask for more than that!! Just beautiful!

Anne, I'm very impressed by your work with reinkers, it looks like you've been doing it for a long, long time - it's a sweet, sweet image too, I'm glad you took the plunge and got it onto a card - I like how you did CAS with dark cardstock, it's dramatic!!
