Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
Now, I MUST admit this...I had a BLAST putting this card together....AFTER I printed off the sketch template, that is...Before that....well, that's a WHOLE other story! LOL! Take my word for it, PRINT OUT THE SKETCH! I know that my ranting scared off Speedy the Cat, and he usually hangs around, NO MATTER what!
I stamped the silhouette bird and ferns in Adirondack's Espresso. Next, I used my Copic Airbrush to create the sky and Sun. (The sun was made by punching out a 1" circle and used that punched HOLE as a reverse mask.)
The nest was stamped in Adirondack's Espresso and colored in with Copics.
Finished card size is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (It fits in a "regular card" envelope.)
Total time to complete: over an hour...But, with the template, it took 23 minutes!

Spectacular! Your card is positively awesome. I like how your ribbon and charm extend the same width as the fan. Really balances the card. Great job with this difficult-looking sketch.
