This is the first card I've done totally using copic markers. The more I use them the more I love them. When I finished this card and showed it to my husband, he just said, "that's nice, but what is it?
"What does it look like?" I replied.
"Like a chicken with some pears." he said.
Oh gosh, I give up, what does one do with a man like that?
So now my Partridge in a Pear Tree has became a chicken with some pears.

Beautiful "chicken" card, Mel! Somehow "...and a chicken in a pear tree" doesn't have the same ring as a partridge. Your coloring is splendid, and I like the flap closure with the ribbon.
Beautifully colored! My first copic card didn't look anywhere near that good. You got it down girl! Great card. Are we married to the same man?~LOL Happy New Year!

LOL, you are HILARIOUS! What ever possessed you to ask a man what he thinks of your or anyone's card? ;-)
I think your chicken and pear are absolutely precious. We won't even mention that I can actually differentiate a partridge from a chicken.
Now that we've put that aside ... your card is utterly darling and beautifully colored with Copics. Not an easy task, but you made it look easy and you made it beautiful!
