Today was a happy card making day because I needed to make a card for a happy occasion.  One of my friends recently gave birth to a little girl.  I know how excited her family is to have this new addition to their family, and how much that baby girl is truly loved by her parents and siblings.

I decided to use papers from Basic Grey’s Two Scoops 6″ x 6″ paper pad and the layout for the September Sketch For You To Try.  I paper pieced the birds, the star and the moon from Two Scoops scraps.  I think it turned out pretty cute, if I say so myself.  😉

I stayed pretty true to the sketch for this one – no major manipulations, mirror imaging, etc.  I did round the corners of the card itself. Here’s what the sketch looks like:
