Here is my card for Verve's the third week of May challenge. My blogging buddy Maureen sent me some punched birds as I don't have this punch - yet!! They were a perfect match to the inspiration piece. Especially love the sparkly branch.
I scored the kraft as per the paneling of the wall and added a big old celery bow and a button on the sentiment panel to finish things off.

This is just wonderful, MamaRitzi!! Such fresh colors, and they really pop against the kraft panel. Love how you used the bird punches in this, your scoring, and that sparkly branch. Super work!!
