Hi Everyone, my DT cards today is for -
Going through my animal stamps and dies, I saw this owl and decided to use him again, I used him here.
I used an embossing a wood folder for the background, I then cut the oval. The background was inked to show the design. I then die cut and embossed an owl out of brown card, which has gold sparkles going through it, shame the photo didn't pick it up. I highlighted the face and front feathers with white, then inked over the owl to dim the bright white pen.
I placed a piece of card behind the eyes and added a black gem to each eye. He was placed behind the oval and attached with his feet to the front layer. I then attached the embossed front layer to the background card, I pulled the ears out and added a 3D pad behind his head after attaching the body to the same card, next I raised the feathers on the chest.
I stamped the sentiment, with the same ink that had been rubbed over the wood embossing and fussy cut it. Two feathers were also stamped and added to the sentiment. I didn't intend for this to be monochrome, but it worked out OK, I think.

What a perfect guy card! I hope 2024 has been good to you so far. I've read a few horror stories, so I'm thinking mine is a lucky life, lol. It's raining here and cold for my joints, Arfur is cavorting around all smug. That's ok, he won't last long! Hugs, XOX

Great owl and sentiment, Faith and a fab card.

Hi, Faith,
I love your Owl! I got an Owl die as a birthday present and was unsure how to use it. I like yours, so I may try something like that. Good sentiment!

Really great sentiment for this die cut owl. So many people I could sent this sentiment to.
This owl looks great peering out of the hole in the tree Faith, and a sweet added feather with a fun sentiment too. I think my feathers were definitely ruffled as I got so behind with everything during December that I didn't post anything and didn't get to visit you either which was bad of me, but hope you had a lovely Christmas and wishing you a very Happy New Year. I have looked back at your beautiful cards and I will definitely do my best to visit you more frequently and would just like to thank you for all the visits you make to my blog which I really do appreciate. x
Gotta love this owl in his tree home, lovely textures. CarolG
