On a Bird Watch? My first attempt

 Yestarday I also finished this layout using a photo of my pretty cat Leo. It's my favorite pic that  I took it this October.

This is my first attmpt to take on a sketch of the PageMap. This is the theme of the Heroarts challenge.(8"x8" layout)
It was difficult for me to make the LO taking on a sketch.

My choice of the paper combination of Basic Grey pattern papers are 'Scarlet's Letter' and 'Two Scoops'.
All glazed brads are from Two Scoops, and a button is from Wassail.
