It is Monday and time for a new sketch challenge at From the Heart Stamps. Today’s sketch FTHS #106 is a fun CAS sketch that I thought would go great with a distressed ink watercolor background that Laura Bassen inspired.
The tWist was to use a two word sentiment; however, I had an awesome sentiment that went perfectly with the new Copic Markers Birdbrain image – so….today’s card goes out to my FTHS design team friends – they absolutely inspire me every week! Thanks Guys!

Fabulous background that works perfectly with the image and sketch. Very clever and adorable card.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and leaving such a lovely comment. Just to let you know, I can’t take credit for fussy cutting the image. The image was not cut out; I merged the image on top of the dotted paper in a Word document.
