This is for Lee's fun CAS challenge. I am not sure if this is Muriel or Marvyn, but who ever it is doesn't look very well.
The stencilled background is faint but not quite as faint as it looks in the picture. You have no idea how much restraint I have shown in order to make a CAS card.
Thank you for looking.

Ohhhhh Susie!!! The coloring is brilliant and what a great CAS and yes, this is different for you but oh so rewarding! Love this very sickly character! I think the bg is subtle and actually is lovely with this composition. I love your art!!
I wondered when I saw this with your name! I couldn't believe it! But you have restrained beautifully! All that white really contrasts nicely with your sickly but beautifully colored birdie! Great CAS card!

LOL, like Sharon I think this would be hard to recognise as your work. Well done you on trying to master CAS, I'm content to just let it happen when it does. Scratch the 'trying to master', there's no trying here.

Oh boy - not a hint of splash and squirt on this card - had to look twice at the artist's name and couldn't believe it was one of yours Susie. You must be feeling withdrawal symptoms by now - with no inky fingers to scrub. Your little birdie is beautifully coloured in that queasy shade of blue and green.
