I had a new owl stamp and sentiment that I was dying to get inky.
And I found several owl challenges out there for inspiration!
Here is a card I made using them!'
I stamped the background with Tim Holtz Tree Line stamps and PTI's Birch Background. I embossed the owl on a separate piece, die cut the piece, sponged it with Distress Ink and layered it over the background with foam dots. I added the fun eyelash google eyes and embossed the sentiment below the inkings.
I'm linking my card to:
My card is layered mixed media. Inspired by the owls and their big eyes!
I was inspired by an owl banner from Hayneedle

ReplyDeleteIt makes a beautiful forest scene with the sponged owl piece. I saw the original owl stamp, and found that the fun eyelash googly eyes totally changed the facial expression. :-)
I googled the sentiment - It's perfect for a birthday card. Hideko xx
