I took a couple of liberties; firstly I have rotated the sketch and secondly I moved the sentiment to inside the shape, but apart from that I think you can see the basic elements.
I wanted you use a new stamp I bought over the summer, Birds on a Wire from Inkylicious. I teamed it up with some DP from Stampin Up and some Lost
Lagoon cs. I sponged around the image lightly with some Distress Ink, and die cut a sentiment, stamped using the new Simply Celebrate stamp set. I've kept it very monochrome, as its a card for a
man, it's actually for my son who has just gone away to university. I like the image of the birds gathering on the wire, very 'end of summer'
Louise - I love your take on the sketch (I often play about with sketches). I think the bird on a wire stamp is super, just right for all sorts of occasions! Nice work.
