Lucia Dawe's mother (I am sure she has a name, but all I know her as is Ink Me Baby One More Time!'s Mom) has been a faithful reader and 'caser' of my stuff for a few months but she has moved on past me and done two fabulous birds (quail and pheasant) on her own and you can see them here.
Then I got an email on Friday where Alene Humphrey used the Two Step Bird punch and her Field Guide to make realistic birds. I'm sharing them here with her permission because she has no blog for me to link to.
Realistic looking punch art is really impressive - so when you are looking for a challenge - give that a try!

These are wonderful...ther is so much thought involved. I reallly appreciate the work involved.
If I may inquire, how did you create the pointed crown on the cardinal?
Alene? Email me the answer and I'll let her know. Thanks
Thank you Ellen for the mention of "mom". Her name is Anita. She will be so thrilled that she made your blog! Can't wait to share with her.

OH I just LOVE this. Have to bookmark this post. I'm not the biggest fan of punch art, but I LOVE these realistic ones. Too much cute kills me...he he! And the BLUE BIRD is the BOMB!. Being a Camp Fire girl and from Missouri...I just can't resist. I'll have to make my mom a mothers day card. Thank you SO much for sharing! Diana
Thank you Ellen!
I've attached a link from my site to you today! Thanks for the inspiration.
Have a great day!

Here is the info from Alene:
The cardinal's topknot is simply the wing fitted behind his head and trimmed a little to fit.
Well, you knew I would love this one. I think they are awesome, and plan on using them on a page or two, heaven knows I have enough bird pictures, lol. Pulled off the road twice this week to photograph a hawk, a great white heron and a wood stork. One day I will have to share them. thanks for sharing these, my friend,
hugs
Thank you for letting me know Ellen. Love your Blog...I am such a fan of your punch art talent!
