In the Forest....


This week's challenge at Wee Memories was to use something from the forest.
I pulled out my owl stamp from My Cute Stamps and went to work! :)
I stamped him in PTI smokey shadow on vintage cream. I cut it out with my nesties & stamped the PTI vintage labels dots (with SU! creamy caramel). I added a little shading under his cheeks with prisma pencils & watercolored a bit of ink onto his belly, beak & under his feet.

I popped him up on Cosmo Cricket earth love paper that I'd border punched (fiskars). I tied some May Arts twine & added a vintage button from my stash.
I put the focal panel on the card base that I'd used my PTI woodgrain embossing plate on. I have to tell you, I felt a little genious with that touch! :D

There's a sweet gal at a local nursery that is expecting her first little baby- and she's loving forest creatures for a theme- thought this would be a cute card for her!!
You've got a few more hours to get your card in for this challenge- so hurry!
Thanks so much for stopping by- I'd love to know what you think!
