Stopping in to share Second Helpings for Freshly Made Sketches - Kim liked my first card, but I felt the desire to follow her horizontal Sketch ...
These little tweeties are from a retired set from Winnie & Walter. On my way to that design, I found the perfect tropically birds for Double D - Birds!
I brought their fabulous Macaws to help with my coloring cause!
Hope you're looking forward to a fun weekend - and hope you find a little time to get your craft on! Off to deliver my Random Acts of Kindness card!!

Spellbinders' Postage Edge Oval dies were used to create the frame! It was embossed with SU subtle texture before adhering to my card front.
Edited to add my sweet neighbor - she liked it!!!
Who can resist a pie? In this case, it was a Chicken Pot Pie! YUM!
I really like chicken pot pie, yes, 'YUM' is right!
ReplyDeleteMistakes that really don't matter still bug us don't they? I am glad you decided to make another card though, because those little birds look so joyful. I can almost hear them singing. The Macaws are also very special the colour looks fabulous against the white. Very clever framing too and how lovely to see the recipient of your random act of kindness xx
ReplyDeleteLove your second helping with that sweet rainbow of tweets! And those Macaws of yours turned out great, what a fabulous card! Yum is right, I haven't made chicken pot pie in a while, need to remedy that!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful birds cards and a picture of your happy neighbor brought a smile to my face, Michele! The lovely birds in the second card are just like Macaws in the picture!

Oooh, I love both of these! Those little tweeties are going to be a winner for sure, and the tropical birds are amazing! I have one of those bird sets from PTI...time-consuming but oh-so-realistic! Gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteOh! Those plump and colorful birds are just too cute! I love how you've used the string as a wire for them to sit on and each individual bird makes up the sections of the sketch. As for your Macaw colored birds... you sure did have the perfect pair for the DD challenge and the color placement is spot on. Your creativity knows no bounds! Thanks for playing with us at Double D!
