Taylored Color with Owls...



Hello again all!  Tonight I busted out this challenge that I just ran across on Embellish.  It's a color challenge that you have to incorporate owls into.  How fun!  I love the color combo and owls are so cute! 

I used the sketch over at Taylored Expressions.  I added the little ribbon flower to the corner of the brown card stock for a little something extra.  I made that flower in just a few minutes...my first one.  I am going to try something different next time.  :O)

Digital Pencil Too Challenge #6!



Hi all my crafty people!  I actually did the Digital Pencil Too Challenge on the day it was issued!  Isn't that something?  :O)  This stamp is so darling!  I believe this is pretty much what I looked like when I was little...hair, kitty and all!  It reminds me of the Bugs Bunny cartoon where the great big dog is saying something like "I will love him and hug him and squeeze him and rock him...and I will call him George!"  LOL!

Anyway, the challenge for this week is a sketch.  Here it is along with my interpretation. 



RECIPE
Size:  5x5

DP:  My Mind's Eye
Card stock:  DCWV, Neenah, stash
Flowers:  Prima
Misc:  Copic markers, MS punch, Scor-pal, Stickles, K&Co Beyond Postmarks (sentiment bubble)
