Hello everyone - wishing you a wonderful Friday...and a great weekend ahead.
It's been a strange few weeks here on the Olive Farm and I'm feeling exhausted - more siestas, reading and crafting is needed I think to get my energy levels back.
You all know how much I love Owls - I have done for as long as I can remember, probably from my first encounters with Winnie the Pooh when I was very young - I still listen to Winnie the Pooh Audio books even now, when I'm having trouble sleeping.
When I saw this new set of digital stamps I knew exactly how I was going to use them to create todays card which is featuring one of the Owls from the Busy Owls digital stamps by Pink Gem Designs. There are 7 stamps in the set, 6 owls and a really useful branch with leaves.
My Owl is called Oliver and he's very engrossed reading an adventure story all about Owls - I hope he doesn't fall asleep and then tumble off his perch !
I resized the Owl and branch to suit an A6 card and then coloured the image using my promarkers (see below) before fussy cutting out. I used some small rub on letters from my stash to create the book title.... you could easily add this using graphics/drawing software before printing.
To create my leafy background i have used a distress ink and a new to me stencil from Polkadoodles.
