Welcome
Thank you for popping in.
I have not been here for what feels like weeks - a slight exaggeration I know, but I have been caught up with LIFE at the moment - that busy time between cardmaking and blogging!

I had fun with this card - using up scraps from my box and challenging myself to work with a black sparkle paper I bought last year.

The branch is one from 'Foot Long Stamps' and being transparent, I was able to bend it to 'fit' the card before I stamped it, then cut around it, trimming a leaf to leave space for the owl to sit on.

The Owl is an Itty Bitty Jilli Bean Stamp from Unity Stamps. I stamped it on various scraps to paper piece it. I coloured the eyes and dots on the hat with various sparkling pens I have.
The images were mounted onto the black background, and silver stars added in the background.

The sentiment was stamped on the blue base card and embossed in silver.

What a cute card Maxine - I love the shimmer you have happening and great paper piercing! {{{hugs}}}
Excellent Maxine. Life is sometimes demanding. Card making can be the release for its stresses. By the way I LOVE OWLS.
