Take a Word Challenge - Blackbird

The stamp and blackbird were found at Google Images.  Edgar's body was taken from one of my family albums (Uncle Paul by marriage).  The background is a mishmash of layered bits and pieces.

  10. You seamlessly "bonded" Edgar onto Uncle Paul, Marie. The background is perfect -- (and this makes me think it's a long time since we had "stamp people" for a challenge, and they're great fun) Your work is always a portrait of perfection, and this is no exception. BRAVO

  11. Just look at Edgar's expression .. it's because he knows Uncle Paul (by marriage) is lurking somewhere near by. Fantabulosis!
