This card was done for a challenge – over at PageMaps blog (contest). I’m not sure why, but when I looked at the sketch I saw a Christmas tree in place of the bird. It is sorta hard to get in a holiday mood here, so I wanted to keep the colors bright.
Since I chose a PTI stamp set, I checked in my PTI paper stash and decided the Men of Life pack was my best choice. The blue piece looks stitched so the lace was an easy choice. The rest just sorta fell in place. I am in love with this card!
