Swirly, Whirly Bird

This card was inspired by the sketch I found on a friends blog, HERE. I used the basic layout, then seemed to forget about my goal, and for once I am glad my brain sidetracked, I LOVE how this card turned out. I will list colors and everything below. I always see people with sketch challenges and wish I could do them, I just have a hard time sticking to it, I will start, then it turns into something else. However, on this card, I think you can still see the layout inspiration.

SU Cardstock in Mellow Moss, Perfect Plum, and Pale Plum.

Pattern Paper is from ProvoCraft, a Bitty Scrap Pad called Soft Serenity.

Ovals are cut using CM cutting system.

Punch down side is SU Scallop Edge, green is pierced at edge.

Ribbon is a Hot Spot thing from Archivers, part of my stash I am working to eliminate.

Pearls are Crystal Stickers (pearl) from Mark Richards.

Bird and leaves are SU Sizzlet dies called Birds & Blooms.

Paper flower is Kaiser Scrapbooks.

Every layer went through the Big Shot in a CB folder called Birds & Leaves.

Happy Birthday is from It's Your Birthday from SU.

Button is just from my stash again, no idea where it's from, probably old clothes!

PS---Note that on every layer, the CB image lines up, I was that anal about this card...LOL!!!
