It's all about the Owl

Happy Sunday my friends. After all my whining last week about my problems I can honestly say the week has been great... YAY!!

Have you ever stressed out about something and then halfway through you ask yourself... "what's your problem lady?". I did that with this weeks Sketch Challenge over at OWH's blog Stars & Stamps. The challenge, by the way, is sponsored by Doodle Pantry which has some awesome digital stamps. I used Doodle Pantry's pre colored Owl and one of the sentiments from the digital set, Quirky Owl, to make this card.



Here's the sketch:

My interpretation of the sketch doesn't have the small circles [which can be anything]. I tried lots of things like various shapes, bling, buttons, you name it, and nothing looked right to me. It seemed off balance with the owl. So I finally said "what's your problem lady?", and left those elements off. Yep, I talk to myself when I'm crafting. Ha!

You can find the Quirky Owl set here. The set come with 2 owls, one black & white and one in color, two digital sentiments, and 2 digital papers.

Well, that's it for me today. Enjoy you day and thanks for stopping by. Hope you enjoyed your visit with me!

  2. I missed seeing this owl and he is so cute! Your inner voice was right - you didn't need the extra embellishments. This turned out wonderful!

  4. The owl is adorable- and a pre-colored image makes it so much quicker- but still absolutely fabulous! The embossing is great- I love texture! And yup- you are right- it is perfect the way it is-- nothing else needed!

  7. I struggled with figuring out what to do with those small circles and I am still not completely happy with it. I think leaving them off was perfect for your card.

  8. I didn't put those circles on my card either. I stressed about it for a moment and now I wish I had just said "what's your problem lady" and been done with it! The Doodle Pantry pre-colored images are super!
