Love Is In The Air

I made this card using Jen's Sketch For You To Try (SFYTT). I flipped the sketch sideways and moved one of the circles over a bit so it wouldn't overlap the birds. I have to say this was a very challenging sketch for me. I really struggles to make the card come together. That being said, I really like how the card turned out.
