TMS#87

Good Tuesday morning! It's time for another fun challenge from Melissa at the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog. Our sponsor this week is Doodle Pantry; I just love this adorable bird image! Cute, cute, cute! I have to say this sketch had me stumped! I ended up changing the shapes of the panels to fit my image and also cropped the image. I used some fun DP I found when we took a day trip over spring break; the backside is used to paper piece the bird. I really had my doubts, about my choice to paper piece, when I starting trimming.... Those feathers are tiny! My daughter told me the bird looked weird with the "spots" all over, but I think he is too cute...and original! Image/Sentiment: Doodle Pantry Digital Image Paper: PTI Stamper's Select, Lemon Tart and True Black, 7 Gypsies DP, The Paper Studio Vellum Embellies: Swarovski Flatback Crystals in "Jet" and "Rose" Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, Spellbinder's Nestabilities, MFT Die-namice Rolled Flower Die, The Cat's Pajama's Cut-Up Die (leaf), PTI Felt (yellow), MFT Felt (green) I can't wait to see the fun cards the rest of the girls have come up with! You can check them out here...and maybe play along too! Thanks for stopping by; have a great day! Angela
