OWH Sketch Challenge #165

165


Today I've been trying out some fun extras I received in my last Stampin' Up! order and playing along with the OWH Sketch Challenge

This bold leaf print was just screaming for either a bird or floral focal point.  I went with my bird punch and an SU stamp set called Language of Friendship.  This is a great layout, and I hope to try my hand at a few more cards using this sketch!

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great week!

Blessings,
Shari B

  1. This is beautiful Shari! I haven't used that punch and stamp set in a long time. you've inspired me to dig it out next time I get to do some crafting. The background paper really is a perefct combo with the bird.

  3. Wow. A floral focal point would've worked, but the bird is too, too perfect! I love now you made bright beautiful! Since I tend to lean toward bright in my cards and my house, I'm going to have to give more thought to exactly how you pulled that off.
