Amy’s Sketch Challenge #16
As you probably all know by know, Amy Westerman posts a sketch challenge on her blog every Sunday! This weeks was a tough one for me.
I have a hard time with the sentiment circle in the center. So I moved it just a little bit off to the side. I used a Hero Arts image Amy send me in a RAK.
Amy had stamped her birds in a soft kind of brown, so I kept the soft tones going. I colored the birds with Ciao Copic Markers from selection B and C. The image looked a bit too bare.That’s why I added paper piercing in two corners. I repeated the paper piercing on the Close to Cocoa strip that holds the ribbon and saying.
The saying is from a Stampin’ Up! set called Tiny Talk. I stamped it on Vanilla Cardstock, punched it out with 1 1/4″ circle punch and layered it on a 1 3/8″ Close to Cocoa Circle. The Card base is Close to Cocoa as well. The patterned paper is from the big Cosco My Mind’s Eye paper pack.
Ribbon and Vintage Prima Flowers from Starlitstudio.
this is so pretty, I just love birds! I love your little variation on the sketch!
I love the birds and the soft colors you’ve chosen! Love the flowers and piercing as well! Great card! (This challenge was tougher than I thought it would be).
Those birds are adorable — love how you colored them and the paper you selected to go with them! Very soothing.
This is so sweet! Love the soft colors, and how cute are those birds???
This turned out so cute, even if you were a “rule rebel”! (That’s ok, I’m one too!)
