For today's Sketch and this week's MMTPT. I stamped my bird in cantaloupe & his wing in coral, sponged in coral and added a pearl for his eye. The sprig punch was given to me by my friend, AudreyAnn (thanks, Audrey)! I decided to create a nest with it and used the leaf punch for branches. My bird has the words Delight, Love, Peace, Hope, Bliss & Faith written on his chest. I used the circle punch to look like there is a hole in the tree. The knots in the wood represent sequins. I'm actually giving this to Alice's husband since I sent a card her way last week. I know it will make him happy! Thanks for stopping in today! ~Roberta

Roberta, what a sweet and thoughtful creation. It has just the right elements for a masculine card - and with that precious bird and the awesome nest AND the wonderful message (on the birdie and in the sentiment) Alice's hubby is sure to love it. So beautifully done sweet friend!!
