How adorable is this smiling owls digital stamp? I saw this image at From the Heart Digital Stamps and just had to have it. I am a huge owl fan! I colored them with Promarkers. All the paper and ribbon are from my stash. I tried some new to me techniques with this card. I fussy cut around the owls. I have to admit this is the best I have ever done with that. Am I the only one that gets hand cramps while doing it? I also used a Martha Stewart leaf punch and glued together some flowers. So much easier to do than I thought and very pretty. I colored some white pearls with my gold Promarker to match the flowers. The sentiment is from a new clear sentiment set that was sent to me by a good friend. I really enjoyed making this card and am happy with the way it turned out. I followed Sketch 32 from I heart card sketches for the card layout.

ReplyDeleteI love how you used the sketch, and those papers are so cute!! I used to fussy cut a lot of stamped images on my hards, and I always got a hand cramp. :) Thanks for entering the DT call!
