Owl'll Be There

 

 

Hello, I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Apologies for the terrible pun , but I couldn't resist. Today's card is very simple, but I hope you'll agree that it is also quite cute.

I had forgotten I had this Hobby Art Owls stamp set, so I thought it only right that I use two of them for my last HA card for January..............

 

 

 

 

I used Core'dinations card for all three layers. I stamped one of the larger stamps from the HA Decorative Backgrounds set with brown Versacolor ink onto the cream card & heat set it with clear embossing powder.

 

I die cut the green layer & the doily with a circle die & attached the doily with a little Cosmic Shimmer glue.

 

The owls & the branch were coloured with watercolour pencils & a water brush. The heart was coloured with a red felt tip pen & a gold pen, I also applied Glossy Accents to the heart.

 

The sentiment was stamped with the HA Alphabet Typed stamp set, using Onyx Black Versafine. This stamp set is meant to give a slightly patchy result, but it was a little too patchy on the Core'dinations, so I filled in the letters with a black fine line pen. I added a doodled border & attached all the layers - using 3D foam pads on the reverse of the green card - to a 6x6 white card blank............

 

 

                       

 

That's it for today. I'll be back on Friday - which happens to the first class day of 2015. Until then, happy crafting.
