I may have gone a little rogue on Sabrina's circle challenge today. Do scalloped circles count? How about round poppies? The pearls on the ostrich? This challenge was harder than I thought. The more general the challenge, the more trouble I have.
I keep stamping my own DP with fabulous two (or three) step stamps and then covering a bunch of it up. These Verve poppies make really awesome DP and I'll have to do it again and not cover it up next time. This Verve Sketch was a toughy for me, but I had a lot of fun with it. I would NEVER have otherwise added feathers to this card. But I'm so glad that I found an excuse to use these feathers that a friend gave me and I think they look great.

Oh, I missed this one, must have been while I was at work. Your ostrich is utterly adorable, and I certainly think she has a circle of pearls around her neck.
You are right, those poppies do make fabulous DP. I didn't realize it wasn't DP until I read your description! I love everything about this. Such a cute bird and super fun embellishment!
