Meljen's Designs Challenge #144

Good morning everyone!! Today we have the start of Challenge #144 at Meljen's Designs!! The theme for this challenge is "Be Square" (Use Square Elements).

I used the awesome image Cozy Little Chickadees at Meljen's Designs. I colored the image with Copic. I popped the beaks and scarves. I used a Marvy Snow Marker for the snow and the little square tiles I have had in my stash since I can remember. That would be no less than 10 years LOL! I used Bo Bunny papers. I cut out two squares that are behind with Spellbinder dies. The sentiment was made by me. I also inked the edges of the image and sentiment with ColorBox Cranberry ink.

Copic:
Chickadees: C00, C1, C3, C5, C7, C9, E000 on the belly edges
Cheeks: R20, R22
Blue Scarf: B34, B37, B39
Purple Scarf: V12, V15, V17
Green: YG01, YG06, YG07
Red: R2r, R27, R29

Challenges:
 One more day and then I can work from home and stay in my pajamas! LOL! I hope you all have a great rest of your week!!
