Happy world card making day everyone! I hope you are enjoying all the amazing crafting inspiration on the SCT blog today. If you are just joining us, be sure to start here!
I love sketches and I love a good bird motif so my card this hour uses both. Here is the sketch I used from CardMaps 4...
I like to use the bird motif on my cards and adding some floral moss to make a nest is an instant way to add texture. For the perfect message I go to my stack of diction words to create my own card sentiment. Add in lots of layers from maximum impact and you're done!
Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty cardmaking day!
3:00 p.m. GIVEAWAY!!!
