New BIRD word and last card sketch for SOUS for me!

Hello there! I am again in awe of how quickly the days and weeks are going by.. It is time for the new BIRD IS THE WORD word or words!!
Actually this time around we have a selection of words to choose from.  Our new word for this month and the next challenge release is HE | SHE | HIM | HER.  These words may be used in any combination. Use them all or use only one. Also, our DT member Heather has created a beautiful sketch below.  Many of our other DT members have used this sketch for their layout as you will see below.  It is for inspiration only so interpret it as you wish!

Heathers sketch..

I have used Heathers sketch and one of my all time favourite photos...My two youngest girls in 2003..

SHE
and a bit closer..
I have used 3-d flower stickers that I have had for years and lifted up some of the hexagons with foam tape for a bit of dimension..

Thank you too to so many who have created for the last word it is going to be sooo very hard to vote on so many beautiful layouts!! That is the hardest part of being on a design team!!

And speaking of design teams the card sketch is finishing at SOUS so this will be my last card on the design team...  I have heard there are exciting changes coming to SOUS in the future...

Onto the sketch.
and my card..
So if you want to be a part of the last card sketch then head over to the blog and check out the lovely DT cards and create a little card!

Thanks so much for popping in, and thank you for the wonderful comments you leave me too!

  23. ohhh! This is my second visit to your page, saw it on the bird a bit ago! I loved those sunflowers then and they still make me so happy! I have a pile growing from seed in my garden this year. There is quite a bit of time left for them to get nice and big and bloom, so will have to enjoy yours until then!
