I loved Betty's color choices this week and found the perfect plaid by My Mind's Eye to tie them all together...love when that happens. My scrunched flower is made from 5 scallop circles punched out, edges sponged with tea dye ink, then fastened together with a brad. Each layer was then crinkled, wrinkled & scrunched! Say that 3 times really fast - lol! The bird parts were also sponged to add a little more depth. The sketch was created by Silke Ledlow for this week's Our Creative Corner Challenge, so I combined the CC with the OCCC! :-) Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment!
