Owls having fun.

The owl stamps are designed by Sam Poole for Creative Expressions. They are brilliant to work with the detail is amazing. I stamped the owls and sentiment with Black Archival and heat embossed it with a clear embossing powder then I coloured them with Promarkers. I embossed the Beach Trees mask on to a paper with a core that I sanded back and then inked. I used another embossing folder to create the texture on the darker brown card which I also sanded and inked. I cut an aperture with a spellbinders die and then I cut a frame using two dies. Apart from the label die, which came free with a magazine, all the dies I used  are Spellbinders. I used Centura Pearl card for the matting and layering I even used my piercing ruler to pierce the edge of one of the mats.

I had so much fun with these stamps that I had a go at a couple of other projects. I thought I would add the to this post. The decorated heart is a first for me. I was really pleased with the background on the fox card so I didn't add much detail to the card so it wasn't  covered up too much. 




Thank you for looking at my blog.
