Two Little Owls

Hi everyone,

Hope you're all enjoying some sunshine today - we've had lovely weather this weekend - about time too and long may it continue!

I've made a card using my favourite new punch - the owl from Stampin Up - which fits nicely with two challenges ...

This week's Less is More Challenge - which has a theme of A Baby or A Child, and
CAS-ual Fridays CFC53 Challenge - which is Punches or Dies


I already have a few baby cards in my stash so thought I'd make one for twins.

Owls stamped with Brilliance Pearlescent Orchid and punched out.  Nest and banner are from the Stampin Up Petal Cone Die, leaf is from SU bird punch.  Also used Swiss Dots and TH bark embossing folders, small flower punch and blingy flowers.  Sentiment is silver embossed.

Okay, that's me for today, have a great week everyone.

Take care
Suze xx

This is soooooooooooooooooooooo gorgeous, love it. Gorgeous stamp, too. Owls just have something really appealing and - well - owlish about them, if you know what I mean! Have a great Sunday, hugs, Valerie

This looks terrific, I have this owl stamp but sadly I don't think it's seen ink yet... Maybe I should dig it out!
Thanks so much
