Here is my take on the sketch.   "Do I have my back to you?"  asks the owl.  Although they are 2 photos of the same bird, the tree to the left of the  round image, is almost a perfect match to the  edge of the tree in  the rectangle image, hense using the  techinque I often like to use.  Again, it isn't what  you look at, but what one sees! lol

Love how you used Cass's punches to make your label.

If you use that six more times in one day, you might find the people around you looking at you with a weird expression on their faces!

Is it related, at all, to Beetlejuice? 😉 (Note I only typed it one time....)

Sorry to be picky...

LOL.  I guess I'll fix it, especially after it has generated that much conversation.  I had copied and pasted it from another source and didn't get around to parsing it or looking at it closely.  For everybody who has gotten in on this conversation....enjoy this music video.  Worth watching/listening to the end.  https://youtu.be/8Gv0H-vPoDc?si=YEhMbX2Ohq9bY14s   For what it is worth, I think I did pretty good on the actual SKETCH challenge part of it.

I have all of Carole's  punches, which I  love to use. Which allows me to choose  a punch, that has  a design that can be nigh on found in my subjects.

In this case the "trick" with those 2 trees works fantastic and I had to look very close to notice it. Nice subdued colors that match the colors in the owl's face, I love it.

I notice the hawks - when they sit on my back deck looking for lunch - can turn their heads almost right around too!

It could almost be a mind teaser.   A sinlge image with two owls in it even. lol  I love earth toned colours, along with  their patterns , shapes, etc which makes interesting works of art. I very much appreciate your  words.

That is funny and very clever! Whoever did the video was talented and knows their grammar. They even mentioned the Oxford Comma which is one of my other bug-a-boos! I can't help it; I'm a word nerd.

Finally I have completed this layout! I don't think I ever have done that long about making something. However the calendars were a lot more work to complete and print; the first one is in the mail by now. Before doing anything else like the AAM-Challenge I wanted this one done. It was difficult to take it up again and remember what I wanted to make, but this must do. I used a photo of fallen leaves that we have in abundance now, every street is littered with them. The background I have in my stash and I used a leaf picture tube from Carole as well as an Edge punch. The font is Fantasy Snowman, a freebie from CF a couple of days ago and the leaf bouquet came also from CF if I remember correctly. All the colors are taken from the leaves in the circle.

I'm  pleased you could  see why  I  used the technique I  did. Many things I  don't  notice until I  have downloaded  the photos, unless they are almost staring  me in the face. As I  have to capture what I  can when I  can when it comes to shooting living creatures. 

I totally get that and what a cool surprise for you when you download.  I'm in awe of you and anyone who photographs anything that moves.  I have terrible timing.  So I really appreciate being able to see those who have good timing.

OMG!  this is hilarious and I "could care less"  or in other words...I do care.  and was I not supposed to put that in parenthesis?  hahahaha,
