A card for today's sketch challenge, though I stencilled in place of the bottom panel and added the sentiment directly onto the card in the bottom right hand corner instead. The grass and fence replace the strip along the bottom in the sketch. I stenciled the oval panel while still in the Nestie die and spattered the card base with ink. The Prima flower already had glitter on it, adding a bit of sparkle.

Oh I love this!! It is just beautiful and the colors make me think of spring! I love how you did the background and the glow behind the bird. Lovely! Thanks for sharing!

Your splatters always look so cool, Bridget! I like how you went "Out on a limb" with this sketch! : ) No pun intended. Love the bright colors....such a happy card~

When I first saw this card I knew it to be yours Bridget. Your color combos, choice of elements and design are fantastic and as usual undeniably you.

This is lovely Bridget - I never know with my sample card for the sketch challenge just how much I can go 'off script'. I think I can let myself go a bit, don't you!
