Francie G challenged us to make a Mother's Day card with either a bird or animal as our main image. I chose this mama bird and her babies from Heidi Grace, which were watercolored. The five baby birds represent me and my siblings, and we are singing our praises to our mother. The poem and sentiment are computer generated. The colors are for this week's color challenge.
TFL!
