I've combined two challenges with this card. Yesterday's color challenge and today's sketch challenge.
I saw Karen Barber's CC363 card yesterday and loved how she used the dotted scallop ribbon border at the bottom of her beautiful card. (you can find her card here: CC363 - PINK POSIE TRAILS by Karen B Barber at Splitcoaststampers) So, I had to try it. Using it this way is great for just a touch of scallops when you don't want the bigger ones from the scallop border punch.
I used two of the stamps from Mixed Bunch. One on the bird's wing and the other on the pp c/s for a background. I also inked white craft around the gray bird for dimension (Now, I kinda wish I hadn't, LOL)
tfl! Have a great day!

This card is really sweet! I love the leaves under the bird and the stamped wing!
