This was a fun sketch for the Fan Club theme this month! I used Anna Wight's "Love Birds" stamp from Whipper Snapper for the main image and "Circle of Friendship" from SU! The love birds are watercolored, and the ground is created with a stipple brush and ink. I sponged around everything with Close to Cocoa ink. Boy, howdy, this is one layered card! Finished size is 5 1/2" square.

You did a FABULOUS job on the sketch. I love the folk artsy feel of the colors and image and all that layering is awesome. Great job creating that ground under the birds.
