I used Sketch Challenge 338 for the layout on this card (flipped it on its side). This also works for Color Challenge 328 to use Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, and Crumb Cake or Kraft (I used Kraft).
I paper-pieced the wings on the birds and used the Square Steps Corner Pocket Punch from SU! (retired in 2007) for the upper corners.
This will go to our friends who are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary today. I wanted to use this little "Love Bird" stamp since my friend gave it to me.

What a fabulous way to use the sketch challenge. I LOVE your little love birds and corner pieces. The little brad above the birds just sweetens the deal. Beautiful! P.S. Thanks for letting me know my cupcake card made the favorites this week. I really appreciate it. I skimmed through your gallery and it is really lovely!
