Hugs - Using TSOT #640 Sketch combined with Color Dare 585

Here is my Design Team card for Try a Sketch On Tuesday TSOT #640 turning the sketch to a reverse horizontal and using an A2 (landscape) card base to allow me to use my swirly bird ribbon diecut with an A2 card base (landscape). ColorMyHeart Color Dare #585 "TicTacToe" Color Board was chosen becase there is a nice variety of colors and any combination would work well with this sketch... chose Column One using Mocha, Peach and Papaya + limeade. 





From the Mix-In packet both sides of Papaya pattern were used, the bolder polka-dot for the background and the softer floral pattern for the Bird.  For the framing of the previous cut bird another bird ribbon die was cut using Mocha cardstock. 

Two fancy circles from Our Daily Bread were cut, the larger one in Mocha and the smaller frame in a peach patterned paper. These fancy circles were adhered directly to the background and then the bird and frame were adhered over the circles.  

To finish the sketch... the circle was a small layered flower with leaves and my decision was to used a sentiment to balance out the card with a Hugs die using Mocha with another small flower and leave embellishment.  


I used the negative cuts from the swirly bird ribbon cuts on the inside border.
