Here is my card based on the sketch ~
The base of my card is Pink Pirouette with a mat of Whisper White and then Robin Hood Red. The decorative paper on the two panels is from THIS Basic Grey Collection and was matted on Celery card stock. I used my scalloped border punch on the bottom edge of the decorative paper. I stamped my bird from Inkadinkado's Birds Galore set on Whisper White using Pink Pirouette ink. I stamped it again on a scrap piece of white card stock, then embossed it using clear embossing powder and then cut it out. I matted the bird panel with Pink Pirouette card stock and then pierced around the piece using THIS Ornare piercing template. I added a few clear Martha rhinestones on the bottom of the top panel and on the pierced flourish. I mounted my embossed bird using dimensionals, on top of the first stamped bird. I also added Stardust Stickles on my bird as well as the bird cage DP and the silver ribbon buckle. The ribbon I used is from SU! and is the Celery grosgrain and Robin Hood Red tafetta from the Winter mini.
