It's Teapot Tuesday and this week it is our turn to "tickle" a fellow teapotter. We have a bird theme and there are extra cookies for including a branch or perch for our birds. I never know what colours to use for these birds but came across a Japanese print with birds this shade of green so went with that. The background is a besem mulberry paper and the green frame is shimmery. I wasn't sure I'd like the two together but I think it works. Enjoy!

I wouldn't know what colour they are meant to be, either. They're definitely not swallows with tails like that, even though the head colouring made me think that first. They look beautiful in your chosen shades. The texture in the background mulberry goes well with the image, for me.
Beautiful image that's beautifully colored and matted, Vicky! The mulberry paper contrasts beautifully with the shimmery frame, they do work well together!
