Let the Christmas Holiday begin!

Over at "Stampin' for the Weekend",

our current challenge is
GET FESTIVE!

I chose to use one of my favorite Stampendous images.

He was originally released for Halloween, but serves nicely as a Christmas owl

when you add snow and a touch of holiday red! 

 

 

I was away from my computer when I colored this image, so I wasn't as secure about the

colors as I would have been had I Googled owls.

 

 

Colored with Copics, I love the pop of red on his belted top hat and bowtie!

 

 

The snow on the branches is a bit difficult to see in the photo,

but gives texture and dimension on the card IRL!  :)

 

 

This is how the easel card will appear in the 6 x 6 envelope when I mail it out.

Papers used were DCWV, several of their 6 x 6 stacks of glitters and foils!

 

Please check out the new challenge at Stampin' for the Weekend!

And please leave a comment so I know you stopped by!

I love the company!

Celebrating Fall with Bugaboo!

This upcoming challenge at Stampin' for the Weekend
is all about Fall!

My grandson very recently became a BIG brother,

and I know that a lot of attention is going to the new baby!

 

I thought this card would be a great way to remind him

 that Grandma has not

forgotten her "used-to-be-little", big boy!

We are also celebrating his making the
"Principal's List" 

(apparently that's a good thing!)

 

 

Using Bugaboo "BB Bratz Ruler Boy" image.

 

 

I popped up the little guy so he sits comfortably on the ruler.

The sentiment is an old rub-on from my stash.

 

If I stick this in the mail today,

he will have it before I see him again!

He loves getting mail!

 

Thanks for joining us at Stampin' For the Weekend!
