CTD colors are crumbcake, regal rose (substituted melon mambo- it's a bit brighter), pretty in pink, and old olive. I love Regal Rose but, for the life of me I can't find my ink pad... wondering if I pitched it since it's not part of the new lineup. The sketch layout is a "mirror" of the Retrosketch. Thinking this card is a bit busy? The background was embossed with Seeing Spots and then I did some wonky stitching. The sentiment and birds are from WPlus9's Love Birds and matching dies. Added some bling for the bird's eyes.
The colors.. gorgeous pic!!
The sketch...

Hope you're having a great Sunday eve... oh right, some of you may be watching the Super Bowl. We've been dealing with a car that decided to break down... my daughter's and had to take her to work....work's at Hickory Tavern (grill and raw bar but, sports bar) so I imagine she won't be ready to come home until after the Super Bowl is over.
Thanks for stopping by!! Love when you do and appreciate all the kind words!!

This is just FABULOUS!!! I LOVE the birdies & branches - a stunning card :)
Fabulous take on the sketch. Love the birds and the wavy stitching ! Hope your daughter got some good tips today and her car troubles aren't serious.
Vickie, so pretty and your adorable birds so cute! Your stitching is fabulous too, wonderful card.
I love doing "crazy stitching" (as I call it) like this. Fun! Love all the cut-out stems, too. Thanks for joining us at the CTD. :)
WOW!!! Love this amazing use of the sketch and the throwdown colors! I was bummed that I missed most of the game with having to work. Just watched the highlights after I got home and will have to watch the commercials online as they're as much a part of the Super Bowl scenario as the game - lol!
This bird card is Wonderful, Vickie! LOVE how unique it is and LOVE the colors!
There is so much wonderful about this card!! I love the background dots and stitching - I love the ribbon behind the birds - and those birds are some of my favorites. Wonderful use of the sketch and the colors. Thanks for joining us at retrosketches!
