Krafty Bird Sketches

I really liked the panels in the sketch at Retro Sketches this week so thought I'd play along with some of my new goodies http://retrosketches.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/retrosketches-57.html

I knew I wanted to use one of my new bird paperclips from Prima so used that as a starting point and then selected some paper and washi tape to go with my craft card base and decided to echo the birds by stamping on the DP using Stampin Up's "For the Birds" set which were coloured with pencils.  The sentiment under the paperclip is also from that set and normally runs in a line under the birds on the wire but I inked and stamped it into a 2 line sentiment to fill the empty space under my clip.  Finished with a little twine and a button.

There are a number of "kraft" challenges out there this week - my favourite base card - so I'm linking this card up as follows:
