Cute pictures. Although, I could offer some C & C but I'm not sure if you want any of that.

I really like the butterfly and the linework you used.
May I suggest two things?
First in your deviant art gallery, you have a lot of things titled "Click me"
I find it works better to find the image and resave it as a jpg to use as the thumbnail. You can also choose to crop the picture and give a detail. A detail is a small image that is part of a larger composition. A detail is very useful if you have a large drawing with lots of stuff or detail that would be lost in a scaled down version of the image. You can specify that there is a full image in your description. The actual image does not have to change. But having a jpg a jpg for the thumbnail looks much better than a "Click me" scribbled in ms paint or the sort.
2nd suggestion is the coloring. One thing you may want to invest in is a colorless blender. It is basically a clear marker that is alcohol based. A cheeper alternative is a q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol. (don't have it too wet, othersise it'll ripple the paper)
What happens is it desolves the wax in the colored pencil and makes the dye bleed like marker or paint. This smooths out the texture. If you want to add texture over it, you can color over it with another layor.
The blending trick is one I use time to time with colored pencil. I sometimes use a tissue dipped in rubbing alcohol or a cotton swab for blending larger areas.
You can also try using markers or paint first and then coloring over with colored pencil.
