MONO MONDAY #57 (MONDAY PLUS #43)

MonoMonday:  A beauty queen in her own right!!  LadyBug with her favorite toy, until she tore the squeaker out of it!!

 

I decided to highlight her big baby browns by taking the color out all but her eyes, but then decided to put the color back into the ball.  After all, it was her favorite.

 

 

And for the Plus #43, Gator kindly gave me permission to use his Peacock picture from two weeks ago. 

 

 

 

I lightened it up just a touch:

 

 

I have seen this trade done on other Peacock pictures, and thought I would give it a try. Here's looking at you!

  12. Lady Bug is a sweetie! I think you were right to add the colour back to the ball, as well as her eyes. It's a great job. :)
    And the peacock ~ is just stunning.
