Isn’t this a beauty?  Marcy (Marcella Hawley) says:

“We have three images in this set. The image is a bouquet of freshly gathered tulips that captures laid-back country living, complete with a hobnail-trimmed milk pitcher. Two birthday sentiments round out this set that is just begging to be colored up this spring.”

And this is how I colored up my image:

I simply adore coloring Marcy’s images and this one is really fabulous!

For this one I used my Kuretake Zig Clean Color pens on watercolor paper.  If you look closely you can see that I let my colors bleed out of the lines for a little more ethereal look.

For the layout I used this week's retrosketches #207:
