Operation Write Home

I am currently making cards for Operation Write Home, which sends blank handmade cards to deployed servicemen and women. OWH is an amazing organization that ships thousands of cards each month to our nation's Heroes so they have something to write home on. Please check out the tag on the sidebar for more information on this inspiring mission. Please join me in supporting our men and women who sacrifice for us all.

VCMP Challenge #8: Jungle Animals

This one was a real challenge for me since I don't normally do coloring of images and certainly not this kind.  This lion is from MelJen's who makes wonderful whimsical images.   I colored him with pencils.

Lynn, this coloring is very good. Doesn't look like the work a a beginner to me at all. Are you a closet colorer? You're much too hard on yourself. :)
