I think this is my first time posting in this thread and hopefully there will be many more!
I am doing the Happy Mail Craftalong 2021 and finished some cards this morning before the sun came up.
We have a flamingo theme for February (you do NOT have to follow the theme) and I decided to try one and enjoyed it so much I ended up making 5.
I sketched out a little drawing of a flamingo free hand and then colored in the neck with a gel pen. It is fun to do something other than crochet and I’m hoping my free hand drawing improves. Mushrooms are the March theme. It’s also fun to do a collage type craft - I really enjoy doing stuff like this.

These came out so cool. I love that you used collage just for the body- it’s such a neat effect and makes a great visual impact!

They are fantastic! Love the heart one!
I just shipped a flamingo collage that I did last year to my sister! She has a new beachfront home so it will go perfectly in her home.
