Hello everyone,
Today is Friday and a public holiday in our small city..
Hawke's Bay Anniversary Day commemorates the separation of Hawke's Bay province..
So, there you go..
Today I'm sharing a card for commission, Something different and include an owl..
A chance to use these gorgeous papers from Stamperia.
And picked out this gorgeous boy..
Had a moon ready to go, and some branches all painted and ready..
Made my background with inks, Uncharted Mariner and black soot.
and added snowflakes..
More die cut leaves to colour...
Done..
and quite happy with them, considering I picked up the wrong pen.
Now my Owl was sitting on a very small piece of tree stump, and I needed it bigger
for what I was going to do...
So I added some wood grain card stock then inked all over it to hide the join
then stamped it with a crackle stamp and black ink..
Added some branches here and there
along with pine cones..I think it came out pretty good..
After a splattering of white ink, we were ready to put together..
I was really happy with this..
Not too much dimension.
And here he is, with his envelope,
ready for his journey to wherever he might end up..
Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you Sunday, hope you have a wonderful weekend and take care out there..
Luv CHRISSYxx

It's an amazing card Chrissy. That owl is beautiful where you have placed in. Such a gorgeous card!
Another stunner Chrissy. I love to see all your pictures - so much time and care into each card you make.

You inspired me and I made enough moons to last quite awhile. Not as beautiful as yours, but a good start. Once again you have me in awe. This is just such a serene setting you have created. The owl is beautiful, and just perfect.
Oh wow I love this and I am sure the person asking for it will too. Very creative way to add height to the tree stump :) Love the snowy feel to it too. Another great job on the moon and background
