I wondered what YOU'd come up with for this sketch Michele, and I love your 1st literal take on the sketch, but I really LOVE your 2nd card with the colorful nest...AWESOME my friend!! And that little birdie definitely looks right at home in your beautiful nest!! A+ :0)

Cat Craig said...

Wow, a literal and and unexpected take and both are fantastic.

Wow, what cool cards! Jo x

Holy moley...love all those splashes of color against that clean white on both cards...and the crisp black sentiments. But, oh my, that bird is exceptional.

LeAnne said...

What a challenging sketch....you nailed it, of course! What fun graphics!

Bobby said...

Now why isn't that a bluebird? I guess so she didn't compete with the colorful nest. Your literal take is spot on, Michele, and probably the way I would go if I find time to make a card.

Jeanne said...

Fabulous!!! I really like your literal version of the sketch. That's what I would have done. Your second take is a wonderful explosion of color! What a beautiful bird image. Wow!

Tracey McNeely said...

You call it a tricky sketch and yet you nailed it!! Both so fabulous!

Bonnie said...

Two awesome ways to use scraps and do cards for kids or adults! Thanks for the inspiration, Michele!

LOVE your literal take on the sketch, Michele! Both cards are really fun...I love how you stacked all those colorful strips to create a nest for your sweet bird! and how you paired your sentiments on the first one! As always, you nailed it, my friend!

Two pretty cards, but the nesting bird is just fun! Love his "stick nest"!

Karren said...

You totally nailed that sketch - not once but twice! The bold colors work perfectly for the graphic look of the sketch.

I love that you added something special even to the literal take, Michele! Placing the white sentiment die-cut over the colorful blocks is a brilliant idea. And the "thinking-outside-the-box" take is simply amazing! It looks like a piece of modern art!

Your creative brain was in high gear, these are T-riffic! Absolutely love the second one!

Linda Callahan said...

Those bright colors make a fabulous backdrop! Tricky sketch but you are trickier!

Brenda said...

Another fun sketch and I am loving your "literal" take on it Michele! So fun, colorful and happy feeling. Your second card is just as clever, loving the "nest" of colorful paper with that cute birdie sitting on top. Again perfect sentiment. Hugs, Brenda

What a fabulous texture-y nest for your cute bird, Michele ... and cool, graphic, stylish colour blocking ... both brilliant! Hugs, Anita :)
