Owl Bird-Day Card


I am continuing to make birthday cards, and I found that this week Simon Says Challenge is a sketch. I decided to try it out because frankly it looked pretty challenging for me and drew my attention.

I got out my Owls and Branches set that cointains some really CUTE owl stamps and decided to ink this cutie. I changed the scale of the sketch a bit to fit into the card size I was going for.

Here is my take on this sketch:

Memorial day inspired me to use white, red and blue and mixed them up with some bright colors. That was not too hard to do, when using the circle PP from DCWV Fun in the Sun Glitter Summer Stack and the orange PP from a coordinating matstack - I am loving these sets. The sentiment is from another Simon Says Stamp set that I thought went nicely here.

FUN card to make, still have a few birthday cards this is one less :)

Hope you all had a NICE weekend!
