Owl be yours

     For some reason the sunlight and my light box lights combined to give off a blue hue to this photo which matched perfectly with the colors of my card.  Couldn't do that on purpose if I tried.  LOL

Art Impressions Woodland Holiday set includes this adorable owl all wrapped up in his fluffy scarf and hat.

Enjoy your weekend!

Flower garden

     Wow it's March already.  New month means there's a new Stamp of the Month from Stamping Bella.  Flower Garden can be purchased all month long for 20% off.

     For my "add flowers" challenge card, I snitched an idea from one of our posters on the Stamping Bella Sistahood FB page.  She made the cutest image panel using the Bunny Pile stamp and this Notebook Basics die from Paper Smooches.  I elongated the die cut so all the flowers would fit on it and then mimicked her doodling.  I LOVE how it looks.

     The flowers were colored with Copics.  I embossed the back panel with a chevron embossing folder and added a vellum die cut doily.  The sentiment die cut was cut three times, layered and covered in Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

Copics Used:

flowers BV31, BV04, BV13, BV17, Y19

stems and leaves YG21, YG25, YG17, YG67

     Next weeks challenge is this Mojobella sketch.
