I colored the bird with my Bashful Blue SU marker; sponged the sky with Bashful Blue using a little post-it note cloud template cut with my tiny scalloped scissors; cut the grassy knolls out of Certainly Celery cardstock and sponged those edges for dimension. I made the window using my square punch, which is for a double dare challenge issued by Itspassion to make a card with a window or door on it. The colors are for yesterday's color challenge and the sketch is for today's sketch challenge.

Hi Charlene! Wow...the creativity on this blew me away! To be honest, I wasn't liking the layout for the sketch and you made this work with the shutters! I love all the elements in this card...and little bird is the cutest focal point! Kudos Plus!

Clever. clever. Charlene, I sat for half an hour, trying to figure out how to do a window with this sketch and gave up, of course! I love your window, the shutters (one needs to be fixed, I guess?) and the torn paper hill outside. Great job (as usual!!).
