Colored the birdy and branch with Copic markers, sponged the edges of all layers with Vintage Photo Distress Ink, faux stitched using a tracing wheel and ruler, and added the sentiment from the Whipper Snapper set "Lifetime of Happiness."
The layout follows My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge 61.
Thanks for looking and for your comments!

Well -- I just love everything about this one. I am especially interested in your faux stitching technique! How cool is that? I am going to have to try that out. Neat idea!

Love this card! It is very versatile and could be used as a masculine card. My husband really likes this card and wanted me to tell you! Your faux stitching is beautiful!!! AND your coloring is amazing.

Shellie this is gorgeous! I don't come to the gallery as often as I should... and now I see what I'm missing. Love this card. And I'm digging out my tracing wheel & rule - that is one gorgeous affect!!
