A few of my favourite things

 I know hokey title, but dont you think its hard coming up with a title. I always think when people look at the title that makes them want to read your blog, . Because if you read this title you probably just pass on by, because who the hell knows what carded is. Well another day another index card, I have made up a bunch is advance, so I dont feel pressure, and I can create and explore other things than index cards. I love drawing birds with there own personality so here is another one, I made from an index card as well as using an index card.
